SFLIS Minutes

SFLIS MIUTES - MARCH 3, 1999

- Mail:  Free movie at the IMU - Killer of Sheep
  Flyer for "Fear" by L. Ron Hubbard
- SFLIS personal profile sheets are here.  Take one, fill it out, turn it
  in to one of the officers.  Or someone else.  Tell us about yourself.
  There's even a space for comments, questions, and smart remarks.
- Robin Bailey is starting chemotherapy for cancer.  We signed a couple
  cards to send to him.
- There's an anime show Sunday.  Said to be a "lame" one.  "It sucks.
  Don't even bother showing up."  Those who do show up will get to see
  some post-apocalyptic anime, such as "Wind Named Anmesia" and "Fist of
  the North Star."
  It's at the usual time and place - C125 Poppajohn, 1-8pm.
  Future shows:  March 28   (looks like I was't writing fast enough)
                 April 11   Sorcery and Sword
                 April 18   Big 4th anniversary show
- SWAMP survey results:  Details are available on the SWAMP webpage.
  People were in favor of a SWAMP emailing list and a new t-shirt.
  Looks like SWAMP won't be electing its own officers any time soon.
  Probably just as well, since a large majority of people claimed to be
  unfit to hold public office.
  As for Marty's hair, it will be allowed to stay the way it is.
- Gamicon:  It happened, and happened well.
  281 attendees, counting the dealers.  Or maybe 283.  Plus 6 people who
  paid and then didn't show up.  72 at the door, 44 1-days, 18 visitors.
  23 people signed up for next year.
  Gamicon made money, so it will happen again.
  40 tables in the RPGA tourney.
  Centipede was a big hit.
  Next year's con will be Gamicon Kappa, with Jeremy, Nigel, Steve Johanns
  on concom.
  There was some leftover stuff from Hobby Corner available for people to
  buy cheap at today's meeting.

  IMU.  Suggestions for what to show include  Buckaroo Banzai, Monty
  Python and the Holy Grail, Monsters and Mazes, Earth Girls are Easy,
