ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

I don't know if they're all inconveniences, but perhaps some of the issues can be remedied with further explanation. 

Rest assured, we will get to the bottom of addressing any real inconvenience. In the meantime, we would ask for your patience and hope you won't really defect from these discussions without some time to grow familiar with the system. This change wasn't taken lightly nor was it taken to hamper conversation.
