So far I've heard nothing against August 14. I'm still lobbying for it. But
I'm always saying things. I'd like to hear from more folks.

I don't know how far in advance rooms get typically booked there. But I have
nothing against meeting there in August and in November too.

Just to see if there's something else to pick from, I'll look into finding a
room in Castro Valley. Should we attempt to meet in the Tri-Valley sometime?
Pleasanton maybe?

If I might spin the question another way for folks who live north of SF and
north of Oakland (Bill Katz, David Simmons, etc): where would you propose a
meeting?

Good. Are there any other sorts of free public service venues that anyone
knows about? I called Radio Disney AM1310 and we can get a public service
announcement aired, and I'll write copy for it if no one objects (I used to
make radio commercials for a living).
Would anyone object if I wrote up a press release that we could send out if
needed? Wherever we meet, should we consider sending releases to any of the
area's schools? If more than a coupla folks think a press release is a good
idea, send me quotes from yourselves that I can use in it. Don't make them too
flowery - just say in one or two sentences why you like the club: what you put
in, get out, why you show up, etc. You don't have to be a member to submit a
quote, you just have to have been to one. If I get too many I might have to
edit or not include some, but I'd rather have more than enough. Also you could
send more than one set of sentences. Deadline is 7/25. Send those quotes to
the spam-inhibited radiotitan@yaNOSPAMhoo.com with a subject of "Press Release
Quote".

Two hours is good, and I'd like some feedback about our website and how folks
feel it should/n't look and behave. I'll try and remember to bring a tape
recorder rather than write notes. I don't want to take tons of time away from
trading etc., but our site is an effective full-time communicator in
expressing the purposes and personality of the club so it shouldn't be
overlooked.
