1. JOINT MARS VOICE SOP: SOME MEMBERS HAVE EXPRESSED CONCERN THAT
ONLY MARS-RELATED COMMENTS ARE ALLOWED DURING FREE NETS. THIS IS NOT
NEW BUT HAS BEEN THE POLICY SINCE I JOINED MARS. PARAGRAPH 4.C.(1) OF
THE JOINT VOICE SOP ALLOWS YOU TO MARS RELATED ITEMS SUCH AS THE 
HEALTH OF MEMBERS (ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE NOW OR IN THE FUTURE), 
WEATHER (E.G., SEVERE ICING HERE, ELECTRICAL STORM MOVING YOUR WAY, 
ETC.), ANTENNAS, EQUIPMENT, AND OTHERS. 'RAGCHEWING' IS NOT ALLOWED. 
THE STATUS OF YOUR AUNT PETUNIA'S BROCCOLI CROP OR THE HEALTH OF YOUR 
PETS WOULD NOT BE APPROPRIATE. AS EVER, COMMON SENSE IS THE BEST 
GUIDELINE.
2. IT IS WITH DEEP REGRET THAT I ANNOUNCE THE FOLLOWING SILENT KEY:
 NNN0JCH CHESTER ------------ NJ  79 YRS OLD, 17 YRS IN MARS
3. MARS: TOGETHER WE CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING.
