While it appears that many members of the LISTSERV are professionals, I
think you'd find few professionals among the membership of ACTR (if that's
what you mean by "association"). I think that, in recent years, the ACTR has
grown to focus more and more on theoretical concerns, an area in which few
professionals have any interest -- or patience.
