The mail & membership info computer for the Yamaha 650 Society has crashed, and even though backed up,
administration needs the help of all existing Yamaha 650 Society members to rebuild the information needed.
Here is a copy of the communication from Interim Director Don Lawson in this regard: Blue

Hi Folks -
Early this month (September, 2010) the hard drive in my 1980 computer (DOS, Professional Write program) which I used to make newsletter mailing labels died.
And, it was only 30 years old!
I have the file backed up through April, 2010, but I'm not sure yet if I can find anyone who can read it.
I need you to send me a copy of YOUR LAST MAILING LABEL so I can start to rebuild the Society Data Base on another media. If you can, please do this before October 20, 2010.
This won't be easy or quick.
If you have any ideas, let me know!
I have tried several experts and so far they can't recover the mail list.
There may be a delay in the next newsletter.
Thanks.
