In addition to having quite good meetings, CAMWS <https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcamws.org%2F&data=02%7C01%7CCLASSICS-L%40lsv.uky.edu%7C7de85ae0704c4fd338d008d6a66b9786%7C2b30530b69b64457b818481cb53d42ae%7C0%7C1%7C636879378380613925&sdata=zo%2BCeQt7fviGqBTF6XNjA1eYgAtl3BZNbzgOla8H0jc%3D&reserved=0> has some nifty online services including access to the Loeb Classical Library. That by itself can save members plenty of time and money. I just used it, as I pondered the odd finding that δέος, "apprehensive fear," seems not to occur in Aristotle's *Rhetoric. *Assuming I didn't foul up my search - never a sure thing - that is very strange indeed. One upshot is that discussions of "fear" in the *Rhetoric* are based on φόβος, which *tends* to mean, "panic fear." (There is some disagreement on this, so far.) Anyhow, CAMWS is good even if one isn't from midwest or south... Dan
