AROC-USA dues increase

[GordonHyde@domain.elided]

This question is directed at the educated masses out there, and maybe 
especially those AROC Board members who monitor this forum.  What's with the 
dues increase?  Did I miss some general announcement, or something in the 
Owner?  I remember someone (Bernie Z??) mentioning something on the AD a 
couple of weeks ago (right after I sent in my renewal check) but that is all 
I have heard or read.  In checking with some local chapter members I am also 
drawing blank looks and questions.  
Elucidation is clearly required.
TIA
