        Although I see your point Mike, that some people are very busy, 
don't have much time......it is my opinion that those people are seeking 
a fast food menu, a service of insta wife.  It is not that much different 
from what I see on personals newsgroups where mostly men complain the are 
sick of wading through conversations and can't spend 15 minutes looking 
through a group....they want to see nothing but, female seeking male 
ads.  The point being is, one must make and take time to find that right 
person....if you can't do this I gander to say you are looking for a 
insta mate.

: To be fair there are also young women who join for the express purpose of
: meeting the millionaires.

        This is a real opener, surprised its been left alone this long.  
It falls under gold diggers.....don't think I care to hang around that 
bunch myself.

: I personally know one young lady who met and married
: one. A well-kept secret is that GE will greatly reduce prices for young,
: attractive women because the ratio of men to women is very lopsided (a lot of
: which has to do with San Diego itself, which has something like 4 men to every
: woman).

       Although this is no secert, it is very true.  Many years back I 
was a member in San Diego just like you.  Met up with a few women, all 
said the same thing for getting discounts and large ones at that.  

       I average about ten phone calls a month from GE trying to sell me 
another memberships.....I tell them to go.....

       In the end, I have met some very nice people and attractive at 
that.  However, for the price, the crap and very women you meet....its not 
worth the money at all.
