It's a perfect time, I think, for the Guild to impliment some cheap small events. For example, find a local host in some 4 state region to bring folks together for a weekend, and fly in one guild representative to tell the folks what he knows -- it's tough all over, there seems to be some work like this or that going on, etc, etc. The Guild it seems to me needs to be the glue to keep social, employment, and business networking going in these trying times. Kinda like a support group coordinator ...
