I was a member for a couple of years back around 1985. It was a complete waste. Even though that was before the Internet took off, I found that they didn't provide any real sharing of information or sense of community. So I'm not quite sure why they exist. And with the modern Internet, I wouldn't even join if they offered to pay me a small salary every month.
