2008 Legacy Membership Report

Legacy Member o. Legacy: A Legacy Member is someone who belongs in the AIDC 100 "Hall of Fame" because of early involvement in the development of AIDC technologies or implementation thereof, and who may have been previously overlooked or may not have previously qualified under original membership rules. A Legacy Member is no longer active in our industry and is honored during his life time or thereafter. There is no limit to the number of Legacy Members.

Legacy Members - to Date • Legacy Members – Richard Mindlin – Hal Juckett – Milt Field – Donald Martin – Albert Heijn – Larry Russell – Thomas Wilson • Recommended names – more work required – 3 or 4 possible candidates – Searching for address/relatives /former colleagues, etc. – Can YOU help in the search

How can we re-start a Slow Start • Some suggestions – Another email request (similar to previous) for Candidates to all current members – Request for Legacy nominations on the AIDC 100 (secure site) – Emphasize Legacy Candidates may be living, or deceased – Definition of Legacy eligibility guidelines may be somewhat confusing (when compared with Disabled, Emeritus or Inactive) when recommending candidates – Will clarification of Category definitions be a useful approach?

Help most needed for recommended candidates Most likely encountered roadblocks are unknown address, unknown relatives and whether candidate is deceased Using emails, or possibly the AIDC 100 Secure Web site may be utilized to: • • Secure address of candidates Determine health status of candidate Relatives or friends of candidate To seek volunteers of other AIDC 100 members to assist in search for required information on recommended candidates

Please • Accept the challenge – JUST ONE deserving candidate • Try some limited research to determine where your recommended candidate may be • We want Worldwide candidates • Provide candidates qualifications & contributions to the world of AIDC (100 words or less) or relevant documentation • Try not to get too easily discouraged –even try a second time – persistence is a must
