I am a member of a Retirees' Club, and I do try to pass on information about the Web Site every time I am in a gathering of the members, though my wife is even apprehensive about me doing that. She fears that the Company might take action against me.
However, it is no use expecting the Committee of a Retirees' Club to help us. The Clubs are dependent to a large extent on the Company for their funding, and they must therefore watch their P's and Q's. Circulating the URL of the Web Site might be considered unduly provocative.
I am sure the Company would like nothing more than a cast-iron excuse to withdraw the increasingly limited funding of the Retirees' Clubs, so they are right to be circumspect.
