Elections: Charlie showed up at the meeting for the first time in a while. I believe his intent was to make certain we didn't dump him off the Board, although he claimed he just happened to see the pizzas being delivered and thought he would drop in to make certain there were no leftovers.
Charlie was relieved to discover that we had no such evil intentions, and he is on the slate of candidates running for election this year. Pretty much all of us are, although Stan now has a conflict with the Board meeting and probably won't be attending for the foreseeable future. It seems the beekeepers serve better meals than we do. I can't think of any other reason Stan would choose their meetings over ours.
And there is no truth to the rumor going around that Bill Bradley dropped out of the presidential race to concentrate on campaigning for the position of DVPC Treasurer.
There is still a chance to serve on the new Board. Candidates are encouraged to contact a Board Member to get their name on the ballot.
New Business:
Membership: (This is really Old Business, since we spoke about it last month, but it was already here under New Business, and I'm too lazy to move it.) Peggy reported our membership continues to slowly grow. This with virtually no effort being made by the Board! The Members are therefore to be congratulated for their hard work in spreading the news about DVPC and bringing these new members into the fold. You are an inspiration to the Board!
As you can tell from the above, this was what is known in the profession as a "slow news day" meeting. The high point was probably Charlie's explanation of how to tell a brochure from a poster. Anyway, this month's minutes are even boring me, and I love to hear myself write, so I think it's time to end them.
Don't forget, the April meeting has two great attractions: Microsoft will introduce us to Windows 2000 Professional (the desktop version), and the elections for members of the Board of Directors. Remember, vote early and vote often... and remember the name: Tom Krauss. Tom Krauss. Tom Krauss.
