Thanks Frank,

I appreciate the response, looking at the list I would be interest in the Education Committee, I'll join their mailing list first and get familiar with their network.

Also, I was looking at the local chapters, I'm in the United States in New York, is their no local chapter here? Just in California (Based on the link)

Razy,

I also meant to emphasize that the local chapters are also always
looking for keen volunteers to give presentations, organize events
and lead/support local initiatives of various sorts.
