This last point has been expressed by many others as well, both inside and outside.
As far as recognition goes.... the members and sponsors of ASACP are informed of the successes, much like the many press releases that have been sent out by Joan over the 2 years.
While public acknowledgement for ASACP's efforts are desired, the reality is that it doesn't happen. But privately, people at the Attorney General's office and FBI offices know what ASACP does.
The end result of all the financial support for ASACP and all the hours that Joan, Gracie, Tim, and myself contribute (which could be spent on more profitabe efforts if we were selflless) is to shut down CP.
Read the almost daily news stories about busts in CP. Results happen, they aren't just attributed to ASACP in print. If you felt that it didn't deserve your contributions, then you wouldn't be giving them money.
if you feel it is a worthwhile cause, then that;s why people support by being members and sponsors.
the dollar is the almighty vote in business, and ASACP has alot of votes in its favor to keep it going on its mission. There is alot of the industry that are not members.. so looking to receive money from mainstream is not a bad idea.
Fight the no respect!
