Announcements
Lisa Convention: LosCon this weekend at LAX Marriott. Promises to be a good time. Memberships still available. Rooms may even be available (just not con rate).

Reviews
Carole Went to Levis for 49 v./ Packers. First time at stadium. It’s nice. Excellent but expensive food. No option to eat other than standing or in stadium seat. Took light-rail. Worthwhile experience, would probably on do it again if it’s an exceptional game. Worth full price for the experience.
Bill: Did not appreciate being on the low end of the point spread. Tickets not cheap, especially with Ticketmaster fees. Worth it to see the Packers. Cost of one game is on par with a convention weekend. Pregame entertainment, and swag tossing. Players looked smaller than on TV. Enjoyed the experience, but not sure about doing it again.

Fred Benefit of the Internet Archive regarding a story from the ‘30s. SF Magazine story was available (by Neil Jones) and could see if he would want to read the whole thing (no).

Auction

Meeting was adjourned at 20:34 and the rumor was: It was a dork and stormy night.
