So as a member, I ask the question:
     Did we really pay someone a quarter of a million dollars a year?

If true, something seems very wrong about that. I am all for paying  
people for their time, but for a not-for-profit, that seems a waste  
of money. Did a profit/loss statement get sent to members with this  
information and I was just too dense to notice this expense?

Hopefully in the future, this will not be the case.
