=====================

The benefits of membership in PTN is mainly the fact of being part of an
organization that represents the Preservation Trades Community. Without
a show of support, without a commitment of funds, without personal
effort to be involved-- there is not an adequate sense of community,
there is not adequate effort for sharing and educating, there is not an
adequate means of networking which means in the world of influence and
politics the community basically does not exist. So for now, the main
benefit of being a member of PTN is being part of a community.
