NASPC is indeed alive and well. I read the web page was hacked a a bit ago but I just checked before I began typing this. It's a great deal. Domestic membership is what, $18.00/yr? Six issues of The Pipe Collector delivered to your door. Online "virtual issues available for less if you're so inclined.They have a facebook presence as well. Oh, and you can pay with Paypal. Do it!

I recently renewed my membership for 3 years for $48. You make up the membership fee thru discounts given by merchants as shown in the newsletter.
If you want to speak with someone at NASPC call Graphic Touch Biz in Columbus, OH

NASPC is one of the few bargains left on this planet. Membership entitles you to the newsletter, 6x per year, the right to purchase the POY (a tremendous bargain!) and discounts at various online and B&M merchants. Don't pass it up.

I just joined the on-line version for 2014. I look forward to the newsletter and may get the pipe of the year also. I will be using the discounts offered also.

I've been a member for the past three years. The website does appear to have been hacked at the moment:

http://www.ugg-deutschland.com/
Curiously, I've emailed Jeff Knoll (Treasurer) three times to update my membership and get the 2009 back issues. But he hasn't replied to any. I suspect he's out of pocket for the holiday, which explains why no one has fixed the website.
Renewing my email membership is the best $10 a pipe guy can spend.

I hope the website can be fixed. It is sad when someone hacks a company site. It is too bad that knowledge and ability could not be used for a useful rather than harmful purpose.

It looks like only the banner link from Google is link to the German site, the rest of the site is fine.

(ie: they highjacked only the www.naspc.org URL). http://www.naspc.org/newsletter.htm etc. is OK.
I'm sure I'll hear from Jeff this week. I was hoping to save the club from mailing renewal postcards, guessing they wouldn't do that until mid to late January.
