Committee Reports

(ESD) Fweek Comm - I need people to sign up to keep the library open on Saturday from 4-6 and 7-8:30. (Connie and Herb volunteer.)

(C H) Moo Comm - I saw Millenium. I didn't pay full price. In every iteration, it gets worse.

(RVH) Moo Comm II - Wizard of Speed and Time is still going until next Thursday at least. Call the Nickelodeon for times.

(LAK) Related Moo Comm - Herb and I went to the 20th Century Fox Presents slideshow at Worldcon and they had a slideshow from an upcoming movie called Night Breed, based on Clive Barker's book Cabal.

(WDS) Moo Comm III - LSC's reg. day movie is Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, which I just saw a couple of nights ago. It's worth seeing as an LSC movie.

(LAK) Jour Comm - Write for TZ already!

(WDS) Strek Comm - Season three of Nextrek starts real soon now. Whoopie Goldberg will be back for 8 episodes.

(PJN) Who Comm - They've just done something to Dr. Who that may spell the death of the series. If you want to know, come ask me or Herb.

(PJN) Skinner Report - The Skinner now has a car up here.

BING!

Old Business

(HAM) If Meryl ever shows up, this will probably be her last meeting.

(WDS) Noreascon was last weekend. It went off rather well, at least as seen from outside.

Old business Algol - Usual everything: BING!

BING!

New Business

(WDS) There's going to be a TV show this fall which is a spinoff from Alien Nation.

A chorus of Rabbits Have No Tails at All starts.
