[Artemisia] Membership fees

[Richard Samul]

Another way of looking at this:

For a sustaining member, a $8.00 increase is a whole $0.67 a month.  
It's not even two (!!!) non-member surcharges.

I'm on a limited income - my wife is disabled, and I'm self-employed,  
working for real-estate agents in one of the worst housing markets in  
recent memory. Back in September, I wrecked my truck, and was forced  
to buy a new vehicle. I'm flirting with foreclosure on my house. Let's  
not even talk about the medical bills that are in collections. And  
yet, I'm going to pay the increase, because $0.67 a month isn't going  
to make or break me.
