That's to join SPED itself, which also gives access to the goodies. The link
I mentioned below lists some of the advantages of joining the organization
(I'm not a member/no affilliation).
Since I cannot access the inner pages, I can't comment on how up-to-date the rest of the site is; recently getting a link to Piping Design Central posted there only took a few prods with a dull stick. The public message board ( <a href="http://groups.msn.com/SocietyofPipingEngineersandDesigners/general.msnw">http://groups.msn.com/SocietyofPipingEngineersandDesigners/general.msnw</a> ) has a few new entries.
