Yes, on that note, I suggest you get in touch with WAS, Inc (www.was-inc.com).
They are an ecommerce fulfillment house that uses Datamann software in the
background, and they have developed the new ecommerce web interface for
Datamann. They are in California, so you folks out there should be able to get
in touch with them easily. Les Kooyman is the guy to talk to there that knows
me. They can handle the credit card processing for memebrships, and help ExI and
the Extropic Art Center set up a shopping cart for, what else, "t-shirts and
coffee mugs... " ;-).
