Reply to "TTOS"

I have been a TTOS member since 1990.  Its fine and I enjoyed the convention in Altoona...plus some of their recent convention cars have been pretty neat.  However we had an odd experience.  Shortly after paying for the 2007 Convention with our credit cards we were told at the hotel in Altoona that the card was declined.  We called MasterCard and were told that someone in Glendale CA was charging up thousands to the card.  At the same time TTOS had some issues and lost orders for convention cars etc and apparantly had to let some office staff go.  This is all hearsay mind you but I feel there is a connection. But aside from this I am still a happy TTOS member.  None of this if related was the fault of TTOS.
