[18:01] Jedi8798: only one item today, the Space Ref offer [18:01] KellyMann10: has joined the chat [18:01] Jedi8798: Opinions on the Space Ref offer? [18:02] rmmlg08: I hardly see how this is an "amazing offer" [18:02] rmmlg08: as the title of the email would imply [18:02] rmmlg08: and if we were in a position to spend 1200 a year on a website ad, we wouldn't need an endowment fund [18:03] Jedi8798: yeah. [18:03] KellyMann10: i think its too much for what we would get out of it [18:03] nyeerrmm: i'd agree [18:04] rmmlg08: well that was easy [18:04] Jedi8798: All in favor of accepting the offer of advertising space for $100 a month. (Aye/Nay/Abstain) [18:04] Jedi8798: Nay [18:04] nyeerrmm: nay [18:04] KellyMann10: nay [18:04] rmmlg08: nay [18:04] rmmlg08: holy crap kids, we just voted no to something successfully [18:04] hydrogenlithium: has joined the chat [18:04] KellyMann10: hahaha [18:05] KellyMann10: is this the first time? [18:05] rmmlg08: that I can remember [18:05] Jedi8798: motion fails. 0-4-1 [18:05] rmmlg08: (may have happened beforeand I just forgot) [18:05] nyeerrmm: of course, could have just rephrased it to make it a yes [18:05] Jedi8798: No, it hasnt happened before [18:05] Jedi8798: I'll send Jim an email explaining. [18:05] nyeerrmm: and coc did once for raising dues [18:05] rmmlg08: true [18:05] KellyMann10: oh ok [18:05] Jedi8798: Any other items for the night? I have none on my docket. [18:06] rmmlg08: brian, any conf updates? [18:06] nyeerrmm: hurricane this weekend, didnt get much done, should have registration up by the end of the week [18:07] rmmlg08: think I'm going to book flights soon before the already high rates get even more ridiculous [18:07] Jedi8798: luckily UASEDS will likely be driving [18:07] Jedi8798: given a large percentage of the membership wants to go [18:07] rmmlg08: fyi to others, looks like flying into houston and shuttle to college station is the way to go [18:07] Jedi8798: as to how many will actually go [18:08] Jedi8798: *shrugs* [18:08] nyeerrmm: its a fun drive through lots of desert [18:08] rmmlg08: unforunately, I don't think I'll get there until around noon on fri [18:08] nyeerrmm: but speed limits 85 in west texas [18:08] Jedi8798: 85 in a HOV.. [18:08] Jedi8798: that would be interesting... [18:08] Jedi8798: I think I'll stick with the vehicles limits of 70 something [18:09] nyeerrmm: my one concern with taking the shuttle in is you have to get one of the few cabs to get to a hotel near campus, which aren't necessarily that close [18:09] Jedi8798: With no further items, I adjourn the meeting. Shortest Exec meeting on record I believe
