Reviews:
Yochanan reviewed = Station 11, a post-apocalyptic non-linear story about a pandemic flu that kills almost everyone. Based on the novel of the same name by Canadian writer Emily St. John Mandel, shown on Amazon Prime. Highly recommended

John O reviewed = Dune II as having great cinematography, good acting & good fight scenes.
See it in IMAX if you can. Highly recommended. Hans Zimmer scored it.
Valerie reviewed = ST-SF: Trek to San Francisco, held March 8-10, 2024 at the Hyatt Regency SFO Hotel. The schedule was released that week. There were complaints of it being disorganized. One track of TV star talking were nearly the only programming offered. Book sales were awesome. Attendees were generally the older literate crowd of Trek regulars from all over. It was a good con for Valerie and Candy at the Silicon Authors' table. https://www.creationent.com/cal/st_sf/index.html
Rumor: Is Daylight savings time a form of Time Travel?
Adjourned: 9:03 pm
PS: The Vice President would like to to thank Candy Lowe for taking the minutes for this meeting, as he had opened the meeting from his cel phone while out on his evening walk…
