Default RE: Historical membership figures?

Right Mode. Would be nice to see all the years in a single line chart. Also on the same line chart a bottom line profit and loss overlay. Funny but I went through last years financial report and the AMA saw gains in just about every area with decrease in membership. I'm sure there is a break point to a loss, but it appears it would have to go well below 125,000 members. One of the biggest money makers for the AMA is their cash invesments. They also have a good bit of property which can come in handy if they want to invest on margin. I don't think most realize just how important it is for any organization to hold on to as much real estate as possible for future bailouts if needed.
