I think W was on the tail end of the numbering scheme--as Bob pointed out,
the W folks who were members before the system started go clear up into
the 2000s somewhere.  That's why I was mentioning that in order to figure
out who was before the numbering system, one would have to ask Joe where
it cut off that first year.

Yes, the numbers were assigned alphabetically by Region, and the West Region was
last alphabetically.  No particular reason other than convenience.  We had
around 2500 members at the time.

And as Nina pointed out, it is also now possible to have "custom" numbers
that are out of sequence--I don't think that was the case to start with
(other than Joe's own... <g>) but again likely Joe can answer that.  :-)

No, we did that from the get-go.  Any member could pay $5 to AERC and have their
number (or their horse's number) changed to whatever number within the system
that they wanted, as long as it was not already in use by somebody else.  Susan
Kasemeyer, for example, bought her 13130 number.
