Minutes

The meeting was called to order at 19:52 by F. Miller, pres.

The minutes were accepted.

The treasurer s report ($937.14 balance) was accepted, subject to audit.

Seven were prezent, there are 10-13 members.

L. Miller found a morphing program. Tryc asked whether it changes a guy into a lion, &c.

There was no old bizness.

New bizness:

Tryc showed a proposed meeting schedule, arranged with the union: Jan 5, Feb 2, Marc 2, Apr 6, Mai 4, Jun 1, July 6, Aug 3, Sep 7, Oct 5, Nov 2, and Dec 7, but with Sep 7 (Labor Day) changed to Aug 31. It was accepted, with that change.

L. Miller said he will be absent in Feb, off to Florida.

Tryc asked about paying dues to APCUG, $50, and whether the editor did APCUG articles? The editor answered, no, for he is not registered. F Miller said he was guiltie of that, but no longer knows his password with APCUG. Tryc suggested he crave his password from APCUG by e-mail. Curtis moved that the club try APCUG yet a year, Tryc seconded, accepted.

F Miller switched from dial-up to Buckeye, because of MagicJack, which at first costs $39.95, and later $20/year, which connects to a service that allows world-wide telephoning at no further cost.

Tryc asked about getting new blood in the club.

At 20:22 the meeting was adjourned.

Respectfully submitted by Sándor Halász, secretary.
