Committee Reports

(A^2) Moocomm: Deathstalker was indeed horrible- it managed to make sex and violence boring.

(Adam) Moocomm: Ice Pirates- ok in parts but takes itself too seriously sometimes (wow).

(B*) Pseudo-Moocomm: ST III rumors- Christopher Lloyd as a Klingon commander, James B. Sikking (from Hill Street) as captain of Excalibur, return of Kevin Reilly. (TLH) Note- in ST II Mr. Kyle returned as a transporter operator. (B*) One of the ships will be the USS Grissom (after our Gus Grissom), plot- old Enterprise bridge crew and Scott and McCoy hijack the Enterprise to find Spock, may end with the second court-martial of Kirk.

(A^2) Dunecomm: Heretics of Dune is out at Paperback Booksmith.

(Adam) Grogocomm: Technique misspelled TLH's name as "Buckleberry." It will be corrected but will remain in the B's.

(Adam) Screwcomm: Dave Broadbent did well in Big Screw.

(B*) Note on ST III- sneak preview May 23, opening early June.

BING!

Old Business

OBA, usual motion, second, vote, result.

BING!

New Business

(ATS) Minicult: A sad note- the 80-year-old man whose wheelchaired wife terrorized him for 3 days died this Monday.

(TLH) A moment of silence, please (but only a short moment).

(TLH) Miller motions, please?

Adjournment song barely started...



Meeting adjourned, 17:11:25 SST, so there.
