I suspect that a sizeable portion of ARRL Officialdom is occupied doing 
other things than operating and enjoying ham radio. Just ask your Director 
and Vice Director how much time they have for actual operating now - as 
compared to before they signed up for the job.  It doesn't take too many 
club meetings and travel hours before your radio (and all that goes with it) 
starts getting neglected. While not part of officialdom, as an ARES EC, CAC 
Chair, and generator of various writing products, most of my copious free 
time these days is occupied with "about" ham radio instead of "doing" ham 
radio.
