[Dr Kenneth C. Staples]

Hello Melissa

I wish to renew my membership, but the renewal process only caters for 
standard or student.  Last year I payed $44 as an unwaged member.  Is 
the unwaged membership facility still operative?  If so how much will I 
have to pay to renew, and how can I renew on-line?

Regards

Dr Kenneth C. Staples
