It's not required but it'll look good on your resumé. If you're renewing with LSV for 2013, please see the forum entry dated today & titled duez renuz on the LSV website forum http://pub6.bravenet.com/forum/static/show.php?usernum=491463454&frmid=12&msgid=0.
Mainly it's a note to make the check to me not LSV. Bob Bass, there'll be a delay getting your check cashed/deposited but it'll get done. Thanks, rb

Richard old pal; if it will make it easier just tear the check up and i will send you cash. Insidently i made the same mistake to Dorothy with the EVA.
Have a blessed and safe new year.
Bob Bass

Not your mistake. I'll destroy the check but please don't send cash.
