What about using this form:

And possibly just adding any special questions below (such as "are you
interested in xyz committee" etc.).
BTW, not sure why I didn't remember this at the meeting (I remembered it
afterwards without anyone telling me) -- due to budget shortfalls, the
state ExCom voted in San Diego to end the "first year of newsletter for
free" offer until we're in better financial shape. So, regardless of
whether it's a new membership or a renewal -- the same formula always
applies: $25 basic membership, or $55 membership with newsletter.

Hi Rob,
The original reason for using an LPSF form is so the memberships come
to our PO Box and we can better keep track of our local members, for
thank you's for renewing, mailings, membership follow ups, etc. If
the memberships go to the LPCA office, we may never know of the new
member.
Also, at the time of the LPCA "MARA" idea, it was decided at one LPSF
meeting to keep our share of the memberships and just forward the
share belonging to LPCA. As far as I know, such strategy is so time
consuming for the LPSF Treasurer than none of them ever followed it
(and I certainly will not). But that was another reason for the local
membership form.
I suggest we keep a local form for reason number one, keeping better
track of our local members.

Rob,
The main reason not to use an LPC form is that we want to be the
main point of contact in the party for LP members in San Francisco.
We want the members sending dues to us, not to the state level. Then
we can pass the LPC's share along to them.
