Re: [Killietalk] WCW Show results

I have been out of town. That is why the results aren't posted yet. 
We'll get them posted as soon as I can catch up.

For the record, I don't think that is why people are losing interest 
and, for that matter,  I'm not convinced that people are losing 
interest, in particular in the killie hobby as a part of the larger 
aquarium hobby. My feeling is that we are holding our own in comparison 
to other branches of the fresh water aquarium hobby. That is not to say 
that we should rest on our laurels. We should continue to expose people 
to killies as an interesting group and continue to do our best to 
recruit people to the hobby and the AKA. Personally I think that happens 
mostly at the grass roots level not because we do or don't post show 
results immediately. The grass roots level includes such things as 
trying to encourage local stores to keep some killies, talking to people 
in stores when the opportunity arises, being active in local aquarium 
societies and so on. In other words, it is the "work" of individual 
members that attracts people to the hobby.
