[SBE] Renewal of membership on line

[chscherer at everestkc.net]

Dr. Spock? I didn't know he was now designing websites (pretty good for a dead guy). I guess pediatrics isn't paying the bills.
Oh, perhaps you meant Mr. Spock? That's different.

Like I said, it may seem like a simple concept, but there is a difference between a new application and a renewal. And like I said, I don't know all the details of what has or has not been tried. I know several ideas have been considered, and Paypal has been suggested here. Just hold on, folks. There's no answer or solution right now. The reuqest has been heard loud and clear.
