Luckily, I am not Dr Mahatir. ;) :P
As for a solution, h'mm I don't have one (surprise surprise). The norm for
me is to pay at the Convention, financial and associated travel
difficulties prevented me from attending the last convention. Financial
reasons, also prevented me from forwarding subs when the reminder arrived.
(the renewal arrived at Xmas time).
I guess the only thing you/we can do is to send out more than one reminder
and then hope/pray, or do whatever seems fitting... I appreciate the fact
that I am getting another copy of the bulletin along with a chance to
become financial again. See Baz's email to the list. But please don't
send Andy 'round, he turns up anyway. <g>
Cheers

"I am a stag of seven tines;
I am a wide flood on a plain;
I am a wind on the deep waters;
I am a shining tear of the sun;
I am a hawk on a cliff;
I am fair among flowers;
I am a God who sets the head afire with smoke."
