I have had e-mail exchanges with both of them today. Please take a couple of minutes, review their appliations, and leave any comments you might like. To view their applications go to oldbaseball.com, click on "diretory", then"view new member applications" - after which you'll select your name from the drop-down and enter your password. We also still have two other applications from Wade Luxon & Shawn Torrez, which have been up for months. Neither of them have completed their applications, but please feel free to leave comments on their applications as well.

It's been a busy week in OBC-Application land. We have a new application for OBC membership, from Jason Christopherson. Please take a moment & review his application & leave any comments that you may have. All OBC members are welcome & encouraged to leave comments. Jason still needs a 4th member to recommend him (question #3 always seems to be the one that people don't complete); he's listed Mr. Ashton, Mr. Distelrath & Mr. Donaldson, so if anyone else has had any personal dealings with Jason& would like to recommend him, please e-mail me & let me know. Comments are also encouraged on this week's earlier applicants too. Hopefully you're all aware by now how to access the applications - if not, just speak up. Finally, I know there is a bug in the comments system: comments that show up at the bottom of applications are actually NOT for that applicant, but for a prevoius applicant. Don't let those fool you. Applicable comments are in small type at the top.

OK, I've been posting that new applicants need 2 sponsors plus 2 recommendations. It would really be helpful if I actually read the question carefully& correctly - it's ONE sposnor & 2 recommendations. So for any of the applicants who I've claimed had 3 but needed 4 - well, I'm an idiot. For my mini-rant that applicants aren't filling out the application fully - at least for question #3, again - I'm an idiot. When the new AC is announced I'll forward e-mails regarding Jason Christopherson & Thomas Billing along. Anyway, keep posting your comments re: Christopherson et al. We now return you to your regularly-scheduled programming. ================= Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2010 04:00:18 -0000 To: OBC-Announcements@yahoogroups.com From: "tomhousley_2000" Subject: We have a new member Hi all, (Apologies if this shows up twice): Applicant Jason Christopherson has met all requirements & received anough yes votes to be granted membership in OBC.
