   I think there has been some confusion on the part of the person who
handles new memberships and adds people to the mailing lists.  I've been
talking to him about it, and hopefully people will get better response from
the LPF in the future.

   As the person who personally answers messages to league@prep.ai.mit.edu
when they concern questions other than membership status, I'd like to say
that I never deliberately ignore messages.  It's possible I didn't get some
messages at all because of mailer problems (it's been known to happen), or
the replies never made it.  I hope this sort of thing doesn't happen that
often anymore.  From now on if people ask about their membership status
I'll investigate and reply personally instead of leaving it to someone
else, though it is still not up to me to cash checks or handle any other
financial duties for the LPF.
