	Yes, yes, yes, one less meeting night a week is a good start to reducing the pressure endured by the rank and file. However, the rising price of oil is a feeble justification for this change. During the last oil crisis in the 1970s, the cost of oil was significantly higher than it is today (adjustments for cost of living and inflation), yet the pressure was maintained because 1975 was looimng! It's all excuse making: They're losing active members fast and the elimination of one meeting night a week is a limp-wristed attempt to stop the hemorrhaging. Like it could ever work! I predict it will have the opposite effect: Send the message that you should spend more time away from active involvement in the organization. We'll all be watching this space!
