[Nfb-fundraising] Important detail About Mariott marquis

Marion:

There is no double-standard. WE specify for each list that certain 
NFB-related postings will appear on most, if not all lists. By 
"NFB-related", I mean as having come from the NFB national office, its 
officers, Board of Directors or, in some cases, other entities such as 
Jerry Lazarus or people from the Jernigan Institute.

Whether the Marriott allows smoking doesn't fit one of these categories.

I'm certain Dave will back me up on this and his word is final!

  Mike,
      Neither are many of the messages sent out by the List 
Administrator that
  relate to NFB business, yet I don't remember you chastizing him! This 
is
  important information that convention goers need to know and many on 
this
  list will be attending convention. I think there is a double standard!
