Your password for the TCS is the same as your password for your wap.org e-mail. So sometimes even if you don't remember your password, your e-mail software does. Or maybe you've allowed another web browser to store it for you for convenient access.
In either case, your system's built-in Keychain Access utility might be able to tell you what that password is. The Mac OS X Help Center explains: launch the Keychain Access utility, select an item, click the Attributes tab, and click the "Show passphrase" checkbox.
Similar functionality is available in the Mac OS 9 Keychain Access control panel, although it is somewhat less likely that your e-mail application or web browser takes advantage of it.
If you have an e-mail address on file, you can generate a new password and have it e-mailed to that address. It should appear in your e-mail within minutes.
You'll need to identify yourself by name and confirm with your membership ID number as it appears on the mailing label of your Washington Apple Pi Journal.
You will also need to have previously registered an outside e-mail address to be used for this purpose. You may have supplied such an address as a part of your membership application or renewal form.
Once you get back inside the TCS (using any available means), visit the Preferences page and select the E-Mail tab. There you will find a field with which to register an external e-mail address to be used for password recovery and optional e-mail forwarding.
Identification Available Options Please identify yourself, above.
If neither of the above methods is successful, you will need to get in touch with a Washington Apple Pi staffer. Please call the office at 301-984-0300 and leave a detailed message. Many volunteers monitor the incoming queue; someone will get back to you as soon as possible.
