SFLIS Minutes - February 27, 2002

- We decide not to discuss homosexual urges at the meeting.
- The Maakestads brought our newest member with them today.
- Digital media devices and new standards that will make everything you
  buy today obsolete!  Copy protection!  Only communicating with devices
  that are properly 'registered!'  And some people think this will be an
  improvement?
- We hope there will be a movie night on March 13 and April something
  (whenever the 2nd Wednesday is).  Maybe Evolution, maybe something else.
  Galaxy Quest in Thermian?  Barbarella, Delicatessan, High Crusade,
  Earth Girls are Easy, Evil Dead, Army of Darkness.
  Or get 3 or 4 TVs together and show all the director's cuts of Blade
  Runner, maybe each one in a different language.
  Croching Tiger Hidden Dragon, or a French movie about angels that
  nobody knows the title of for sure, although it's something like 'Les
  Viste Ouers.'
  Josh wasn't allowed to see Evolution last summer because he was cloistered
  at a boy scout camp and wasn't allowed to go to Iowa City.
- Queen of the Damned is a pretty bad vampire movie.  All you need to
  improve it is to put some spaceships in there to blow up.
  Blade 2, which will probably be a better vampire movie, is coming out
  sometime.
- We take a poll.  If they move the Barnes & Noble book discussion to a
  different night, which night would work best?  So far Tuesday has the
  most votes, but Thursday and Friday are still in the running.
- We're going to IPTV this Saturday  and will arrive during the Red Green
  show.
  How about showing the Red Green movie for our movie night?
- Star Wars opens on May 16.
- SAGA is meeting this weekend.
- There's a con in Grinnell.  So you'd better watch out for him.
  Ok, a con is in Grinnell.
  Akane's in Grinnell?
  There's a gaming convention in Grinnell.
- We've turned in our budget request to the university.
- The end.
