"As former presidents remain members of the Board...without votes."

Is this correct? Is it so stated in the Bylaws?

You see, I distinctly recall a phone conversation with AIS Past  
President Ron Mullin, serving at the time as AIS Judges Chairman,  
when I was AIS Membership Secretary, in which Mullin told me Mahan  
had asserted this policy/principle/rule to him, but Mullin thought  
Mahan was incorrect.

Mullin said Mahan encouraged him to join a closed Board session  
because all former Presidents were still Board members, but Mullin  
disagreed, saying only the Immediate Past President was still a Board  
member. Mullin said he firmly declined to join that meeting.

I was more up on the AIS Bylaws then than I am now, but I recall  
thinking at the time that Mullins' position was the correct one, as  
well as the sound one.

I believe it would be wise to confim this point.

Cordially,
