MITSFS meeting called to order, 1700 SST, Tim Huckelbery, President and Skinner, presiding.
(B*) Motion to dismiss minutes as pointless. Passes 7-about 0-4 1/2 +Spehn.
BING!
(B*) Moocomm: God help us all- Damnation Alley on NBC tomorrow night.
(TLH) Moocomm: Jedi finally came out. Mass indifference in the Library.
(JME) Vice Report: Not enough vice on Long Island, so I've returned.
(TLH) Boredcomm: Someone broke into the board and stole the small t-shirt.
Various proposals for boobytrapping shirt- all useless.
(B*) Son-of-Famous-Authorcomm: Someone asked him if he wrote those 2 SF books. First time this ever happened.
(Everyone) Zcomm: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
BING!
(GF) Many old alumni. An alumnus from about 15 years ago stopped by; said minutes were boring and banana motions declasse.
(TLH) Guy Consolmagno saw Mike Timmreck. He has a little Timmreck and another on the way.
OBA: um, us, uv, ur.
BING!
(JME) It has been noted that the MITSFS has not done anything really weird for quite some time. It has thus been proposed that a letter be written to Yuri Andropov requesting that, in the event of nuclear war between the US and the USSR, ground zero be moved from MIT to Harvard.
A motion was made and seconded NOT to write such a letter. It was cavalierly defeated by the Skinner, who obviously has no regard for the thoughtful effort and creativity that went into this motion. And is probably a secret Harvard sympathizer. (He does often look a bit crimson.) He received a Bronx cheer from the Vice.
TLH proposes writing a letter to Miterrand asking him to destroy France. Then tells a pointless story. This idea is rejected with great alacrity.
A long silence.
(GF) A banana motion (indecipherable). Chickens in some manner.
More silence.
(JME) Minicult: Battlefield Earth appeared on Time's best-seller list in position 9. God help us all.
Yet more silence.
(B*) Chaircomm: This chair squeaks. TLH: "But it was free."
(B*) Minicult: NASA has joined the fight against James Watt/against offshore oil drilling around Florida- to keep water clear for falling shuttles.
(JME) Miller motion 1. Fails 1-6-2 +Spehn.
(JME) Miller motion 2. Dies for lack of a second. What loathsome indifference.
Adjournment song is sung, to great disgust of Skinner. Nyaah, nyaah, nyaah.
Meeting adjourned, 1720 SST.
