When I lived in Washington, D.C., I was active in both the American Translators Association, headquartered there, and the local ATA chapter. I have not joined the chapter here in San Diego.

If pollsters on a translators'/interpreters' website can't get a grip on the proper meaning of words, what hope for our so-called "profession"?

And, as Graucho Marx is reputed to have said (approximately): "If they’d have me as a member, I wouldn’t want to join - unless they promised to reimburse me 3 days' worth of viaticos to attend each of their meetings in Santiago."
