Hope this helps.
Ah, but AAA is also a lobbying group at its core (one that some have seen as hostile to public transit among other things, though I'm not informed enough about that to make a judgment myself), so I guess we have to pick our poisons. My parents have been AARP members since they "came of age" and enjoy the magazine and have taken advantage of the hotel discounts many times.
