will they really be interested?

Charles sent a message to the Council listserv saying that he wanted to put a note to the members about the new car and auto insurances perk for RASC members. And he wanted to include the PDF attachment. I jumped in and said that would be spamming. He asked me why. I asked him, as Devil's Advocate, where the astronomical content was. We agreed there wasn't any. But he still felt it was of interest to members. I argued that some might be interested but I suspected most wouldn't. So a softer approach was needed.
