Bob, please reconsider "Lifetime" and "Grandfathered".

When I joined, everything was free (the company needed posters). I signed up (gave my email addy and some other information) with the understanding that I could do everything that any other member of the SI Community could do.

The more recent "Lifetime" members joined a message board owned by a larger corportation, and understood that there were different levels of membership.

I believe that my (and all original SI members) should continue to enjoy the product that we signed up for: 100% access to all of SI.

I respect your right (as current owner) to disagree, but once again I would ask you to find out how many of "us" are left. My guess is it will cost you little and you will know in your heart that you did what is right.

Bob, you have always been honest. Maybe you are not leagally required to, but I ask that do the most honest thing and grant the few remaing original SI members access to all the wonderfull features that you will be adding.

thanks in advance for your response

Good Morning Bob:

I think Teddy makes some good points.

When we paid for our "lifetime" memberships, we were told that SI would be adding new features in the future.
One of the things SI didn't use to have was "view next 10." This was added and those who had paid, enjoyed this new feature.

I think an exception should be made for original SI members, (I am not one) and also those who actually paid real money ( I am one).

Regards,

BobP
