Umm, yes.  :-)

Must have been some kind of oversight, but an easy one to fix.  At
the last meeting, Brent had a printer/laminator thing set up to
prepare cards on-site, for new members and annual renewals.
Probably not the usual thing to do, but it was the annual
election, and you do have to be a member to vote, so it was
especially important not to refuse anyone's vote just because
their membership had lapsed.

Anyway, you should ask the Membership Director [now John
Blomfield] about your card, and maybe ask Brent too, since he's
done it for quite a while, and John is kind of new at this.
I mean what's it been, like, three days now?
