(Brent) OK, we have a full house, folks, So I will now call the meeting to
order.
(Barry) Folks, I'm actually at work and may not be a real active type
today
(Shaul) Are you ever? (hehehehehe... just kidding!)
(Brent) No
problem , Barry....
(Brent) Item 1 Minutes of last meeting....any questions
or comments?
(Mary) None here.
(Shaul) Not here
(Jurian) None
here
(Toni) No
(Brent) OK, then the minutes will be ratified as
correct.
(Brent) We are pausing...Nancy is catching up Shirley....
(Jan)
None
(Nancy) None from Nancy and Shirley.
(Brent) Item 2 Projects List,
discussion and vote
(Brent) Comments?
(Mary) Excellent outline Brent.
(Shaul) You did a great job drafting that list up, man. Thanks
(Jurian)
Looks good here
(Nancy) I have reviewed the list, and 1. the groupings are in
accordance with what I recall from last meeting, 2. the valid projects are
listed in the groupings.
(Jan) The grouping of the projects is good. I think
all important activities/projects are on there
(Nancy) I think it's perfect,
and if approved will link the existing project info to these new groups, or
rather the other way around.
(Roger) I move that we approve this
list.
(Nancy) Shirley says, "looks good to me".
(Brent) Thanks all, we
have had so much discussion on this, I figured that this would be a quick item
this time, unless there is an objection, we can just vote or not to
approve.
(Nancy) I second the motion.
(Toni) I think it is very well done,
concise and thorough.
(Brent) One moment...
(Nancy) I have one question,
not blocking the vote, however. QUESTION: should we establish an archived or
inactive or some such project info list, as a link.
(Jan) Just one minor
comment: Each category says "Lab", e.g. Energy Lab. However, these activities
may have to be spread on multiple labs and projects or sub-projects.
(Jan) I
find nothing to contradict such split-up in the list, but it should be noted
that such splits into "Labs" may occur.
(Brent) Good point, Jan...
(Nancy)
I think we just need to make the work "labs" not "lab" and all will be
well.
(Jurian) So change it to Lab(s)
(Shaul) Yeah, the plural seems to
solve this
(Brent) Vote or Not to approve the Projects List, Yes or
No
(Jan) Good enough
(Toni) Yes
(Jurian) Yes
(Jan) Vote =
Yes
(Barry) Yes
(Mary) Yes
(Roger) Yes
(Brent) Yes
(Nancy) Nancy
and Shirley: Yes
(Shaul) Yes
(Brent) The Item passes, and is
approved
(Brent) Thanks to everyone for their support! :-)
(Jurian) No
problem, it was about time we all agreed on the project list :-)
(Brent) Item
3 Ongoing Projects, Booklet update from Mary...
(Mary) Nothing new. I mailed
a partial book to a request in Canada, cost 1.60. Nancy's new format of fewer
pictures is a success. I can make a book in less than 15 minutes.
(Shaul)
Wow!
(Mary) Practice, practice.
(Nancy) I will reformat the Project page
accordingly, and link the existing stuff from it, and put an "Old Stuff' kind of
link at the bottom to a historical archieve page.
(Brent) Great, Mary!
(Nancy) If any of this needs changing, we can address this easy on tt-Inc or
next board meeting.
(Mary) Thanks.
(Jan) Good work!
(Mary) I would like
to propose that each member of the board receive a free copy when it is
completed.
(Nancy) Shirley completed the last info to be included and I have
just to put this into PageMaker and mail to Mary this week.
(Nancy) This
completes our 1st draft!
(Mary) GREAT!!
(Jurian) Very nice :-)
(Nancy)
Shirley and I were talking about bundling changes into every 6 months or so, new
info, improved layout, whatever.
(Brent) I like the idea, Mary, what do the
rest of you think? (Board members copy's)
(Nancy) Not to keep it constantly
in motion, but scheduled upgrades, so to speak.
(Shaul) That's a very good
proposal.
(Shaul) (Mary's, I mean.)
(Jan) I would really like to see a
printed copy. It's also easier to review.
(Jurian) Yeah, same here
(Brent)
Me too Jan...
(Barry) Ditto here
(Mary) That's fine with me, Nancy. Try
not to have to redo lots of pages, but rather insert additional pages.
(Jan)
As to updates, I think it is difficult to set a specific schedule, 6 months may
be OK now, but closer to the PS it will be far too long (and would produce only
3 new versions before the PS)
(Nancy) Jan, agreed, only for MINOR stuff, the
6 month span. If something important arises, right away inclusion!
(Nancy)
Yes, Mary, we should tack on the end if possible, so as not to redo all the
pages (numbering).
(Brent) I agree, no need to keep a specific
schedule....
(Mary) This all sounds reasonable and acceptable to
me.
(Shaul) It's great you're doing this, Mary.
(Mary) Thanky.
(Brent)
Great and good work Mary...do you have the Baord member addresses to mail
copies?
(Mary) No, I will get Shirley to e-mail them to me.
(Brent)
Great
(Nancy) Shirley says "I still have some sections I want to do - maybe
high tech home (computers), safe locations, etc."
(Mary) That's fine, but
there must be an end.
(Nancy) Maybe we should hang lose yet, and get these
items in! Logically, Safe Locations (guidelines) should go in the front, where
we discuss high winds, etc.
(Nancy) Logically, High Tech Home goes in the
end of the Settlement section.
(Brent) Catching Shirley up.....
(Mary)
Hey, how ever you want it. Just make sure there is a completion
time/date.
(Jan) Shirley & Nancy, I think we should close it now, get a
printed copy off to the board members, and then continue the discussion on the
TT lists
(Jan) The PDFs on the server may be updated whenever there's a
reason for it
(Mary) Do you all want a copy before it's done?
(Brent)
Nancy and Shirley are discussing....
(Jurian) I'd like a copy
(Toni) Would
like a copy.
(Nancy) Shirley and I have discussed. She will send High Tech
Homes (just has a last answer from Jan to include) and do Safe Locations this
week.
(Jan) This will be an ongoing work, and as activity increases before
the PS, additions & changes will be the rule.
(Brent) I think all board
members will get a copy
(Nancy) I will put the Safe Locations in the end, in
Communities, and tack the HTH at the end of Settlement.
(Nancy) This requires
NO renumbering of pages, and all Mary has done is OK.
(Jan) I would very much
like to see a copy now. (For professional use, I can use PDF's for reference,
but I do like the printed book for reading.)
(Nancy) Jan, Shirley will e-mail
you her question.
(Mary) OK. I will get the copies done and mailed out by the
10th of July assuming I get address' from Shirley. Or you all can e-mail me.
(Jan) Nancy & Shirley, no problem.
(Brent) Then we should all have
copies to review possable by next meeting...if not, OK.
(Mary) Oh, didn't
think of that. I can get them out sooner but they won't have the latest
pages.
(Nancy) To let you all know, I'm back on the air waves again,
probably, due to a news posting for papers and stations.
(Mary)
Nancy.....where and when?
(Barry) Congrate
(Nancy) This all usually
incites interest in the nonprofit, and this booklet (as well as the sighting of
Planet X) will be mentioned by me!
(Jurian) :-)
(Toni) More new
members
(Brent) No rush, Mary...It will work out either way
(Shaul) Good,
good, a promo...
(Mary) OK Brent.
(Jurian) Nancy: will it be available in
realaudio somewhere that you know of?
(Nancy) Mary, this is a news service,
so radio stations call and say "can you go live in 15 minutes" and the
like.
(Jan) What sort of show? Will it be possible to download RA later, as
with the Jeff Rense shows?
(Nancy) Last time I was on the air from New York
city to Jackson, MI to California.
(Jurian) That doesn't include Europe
though, so RA would be very nice :)
(Nancy) This happened twice before since
I moved to Wisco. Get off the toilet, go live, it's like that.
(Brent)
hehehehe
(Shaul) One good thing about radio, they can't see ya...
(Shaul)
(;-)
(Brent) Good one Sol..... Hehehhehe (Nancy's laughing....)
(Shaul)
Hehehehe...
(Brent) OK, lets move on....Toni, would you like to discuss the
seed team list, and contacts?
(Toni) I sent an email to Board members. If I
can can copy and paste here, I will add it here.
Note: e-mail attached as a link from the
Minutes.
(Brent) Oops, I must have missed it while traveling, Toni,
sorry.
(Toni) Just sent before the meeting
(Brent) Nancy catching up
Shirley...
(Roger) Sorry, I've not yet received that email.
(Mary) Me
either.
(Toni) These seem to be worthwhile to contact. I like the offerings
from the Southwest Native Seed Conservancy, but they only donate to Native
Americans.
(Jurian) I got it just before the meeting.
(Nancy) Toni, is
there a reason that MA and Ontario are so heavy? Or is this just the
start?
(Shaul) I also received the message, thanks Toni.
(Toni) There were
actually dozens of places I researched here and abroad. Historical places,
mainly.
(Nancy) So these areas are just more service oriented? Good for
Ontario and MA!
(Toni) However, some of them duplicate seed that we already
have.
(Jan) Got it. Seems you've done some good research here
(Toni) Some
are definitely of a commercial nature. There are huge places like Greenfield
Village in Michigan but they don't seem to have anything appropriate.
(Brent)
Just read the email also, good work Toni
(Toni) Nor Williamsburg, VA or
Monticello
(Nancy) Toni and Roger, are we only trying to get varieties we
don't already have, or increase BULK! 2002 may be a big request year.
(Mary)
Do we have a "list" of seeds that should be saved? You know, certain veggies,
herbs, etc.
(Toni) Bulk will be important for some varieties.
(Nancy) A
related news item, I picked up a cooler for $100 from my sister's closing store,
and have the seeds here nice and cool this summer.
(Toni) No we do not have
such a list, Mary.
(Toni) Good investment.
(Nancy) This was passed by
Brent and the seed team hubs, for approval from discretionary fund.
(Brent)
Yes, there is a list, Nancy has an inventory of whats here in Wisco.
(Roger)
Bulk is necessary, though we are short varietal diversity in some
species.
(Toni) 2 members of tt-forum have contacted me over the weekend to
grow some seed
(Mary) Should we allocate some money to purchase what we need?
Do we have the money?
(Nancy) Mary, we did that last year, bought year-old
seed from Arc, good price, for hubs and banks, etc.
(Mary) Yes, I know, but
are they enough?
(Nancy) We do have on Seed TEAM of TT, a table of what we
are/have growing, but this needs updating, perhaps.
(Roger) And we still have
most of that seed.
(Nancy) Each hub also knows what they have, quantity,
etc.
(Brent) Won't it be important for the Seed Team to have inventory lists
of whats available for future demand?
(Nancy) And the hubs and banks
share/smooth inventory if needed at other sites.
(Toni) We have a posted
list
(Mary) OK, it's obvious you guys have this under control.
(Barry)
Toni, funny question for you.
(Toni) Don't think the Seed Savers varieties
are included.
(Nancy) Mary, indeed, my thinking has always been that as crop
shortages click in, home gardeners increase, and folks cannot even BUY SEED,
that we will get a lot of demand.
(Nancy) My thinking has been that only
community seed growers, those known to their community, should get the seed in
that case.
(Nancy) Also, they should be the most experienced seed
grower/saver in that community, etc.
(Nancy) Guidelines for a VERY heavy
demand, which to date, we have not had.
(Mary) Yea, the seeds would be wasted
on me for sure. I can't even grow sprouts!!
(Toni) Mary, you will need to
grow sprouts..:-)
(Toni) On a global basis, of course, there are definite
shortages.
(Mary) Nope, I'm hoping someone nearby can trade other things with
me.(-:
(Brent) Any way, lets move on, thanks Toni....
(Toni) And the GE
seeds are a threat
(Brent) Low light Crop Research Project,
Comments?
(Jan) Good work. For those of us that can't even grow sprouts (more
than one...), this work is vital
(Brent) Toni, do you wish to discuss the
project proposal...
(Toni) This is of utmost importance. We have some seed
already that will work for the research - lettuces, including 5 kinds from Seed
Savers Exchange.
(Nancy) Toni, do you and Roger have a Project Plan and have
you quantified your funding needs, and where will your "lab" be?
(Toni) Kale.
spinach, arugula(rocket), sorrel turnips.
(Nancy) Low Light foods are a VERY
important issue, we all talk about high light crops without much
thought!
(Nancy) In a lab, you'd need some way to keep the light DOWN,
right?
(Roger) There is shading material.
(Toni) There is also the indoor
with flourescent lighting idea
(Roger) I will need to build a 75% shaded area
to transplant my goldenseal to at the new land donation.
(Nancy) Excellent,
Roger. You could use some of the loaned land, with cover!
(Nancy) So, would
funding be for these extra supplies, then?
(Roger) Yes, I think.
(Toni) I
see some extra seed needed. For example, a large leaved dandelion
(Roger)
Indoor lighting is more controlled and the 'lab' should have dual
locations.
(Toni) And sprouting experiments.
(Toni) Actually, I think it
important enough that we all should begin trying to grow plants.
(Brent) Your
thinking is along the right lines, and funding will probably be appropiate, so
at next meetin, could the both of you do a written request for
funding?
(Toni) Indoors now and throughout this winter.
(Toni)
OK
(Roger) Sure
(Toni) I have more on sprouting too.
(Brent) Great,
even itemize finding needs, location of lab,(mabe Rogers land), etc.
(Brent)
Lay it all out for us, and we will link it to the agenda.
(Jan) Toni, some of
us have no clue whatsoever when it comes to growing plants. Therefore your
research is so important, so that we can set up an environment closer to the PS
based on your recommendations and findings.
(Toni) A person can survive on 1
lb of sprouted beans per day
(Jurian) Need variaty tho
(Toni) At the
minimum, with no lighting, a low tech community can sprout.
(Jurian) Eating
just one kind of food is not healthy.
(Mary) With worms!! Yummy
(Toni)
Maybe you can catch fish
(Jurian) And snail sauce :)
(Barry) Toni, any
chance you could include radishes in your study?
(Brent) Jan, Toni, can we
take this off line? we need to keep moving.
(Toni) Radishes are a good low
light crop to study and also good for sprouting.
(Nancy) Minimum Requirements
for group/community eating would be a good addition to the Booklet.
(Barry)
Yes
(Mary) Nancy, I think we tried to get this info before, didn't
we?
(Nancy) People are not going to find this info in the LOG, we need a
booklet section.
(Brent) Next meeting we will vote on the project and
funding... Good research.
(Jan) Brent, nothing to take offline I think - only
a comment to Toni why her project is important to us all. Let's move on.
(Brent) OK, Item 5 Roger, your land and tiller discussion (and
vote).
(Roger) Well, in case everyone doesn't know, I have been offerred the
use of a good portion of land to grow vegetables for seed harvest.
(Brent)
Has the Lease gone through, Roger?
(Roger) The total land package is on the
order of 30 acres, though I alone won't be able to work that much space. I have
selected a 10 acre corner of the property that is fenced on all sides and only
needs to have the gates repaired.
(Roger) Of course, I've not yet walked the
fences so I am not aware if there will be additional repairs needed.
(Brent)
Has the lease gone through, Roger?
(Roger) The land is being purchased by an
associate of mine and I am permitted to use it without a lease, once the real
estate deal is completed.
(Nancy) Mary, re minimum requirements, this is not
firm though many have asked for it. Depends on starvation or good-eating, rules,
etc.
(Roger) The keys were to be turned over last week, but you know how real
estate often can be stalled by a title company, etc.
(Brent) Is he giving you
a verbal or written contract? I mean he won't say "sorry" and throw you out in 6
months....
(Roger) The land is pasture and has been idle for at least 2
years. There is an incredible diversity of plants within the pasture! Many
edible wilds, etc.
(Toni) How long will you be there Roger, 1 year, 2 years?
More?
(Shaul) Brent's question is very valid and needs an answer.
(Barry)
I agree.
(Roger) The "contract" is verbal and there is little chance of that
happening in the next two years.
(Roger) After that...well the 12th will be
here by then.
(Mary) Roger, are you goint to be able to do this on your own
or are you getting help?
(Toni) Very good question, Mary
(Roger) I will
mostly grow things that require little maintenance - beans, peas, corn,
etc.
(Brent) Roger, you are asking us to "trust"us with Inc property, on a
verbal contract from someone we don't know.
(Shaul) That's the
concern.
(Roger) The individual is known by a few members. I am not to
publicly announce his name.
(Shaul) Ah, well that's possibly different. is
there any reason his identity shouldn't be revealed?
(Mary) Are we concerned
with the tiller? Is that the question? Or is it the funding for the
supplies?
(Roger) He did not specifically request anynomity, but he did not
authorize an announcement either.
(Nancy) We can take this offline, as to his
identity, and have Brent etc. confirm, perhaps.
(Brent) Yes, Roger is welcome
to the equipment, but I think we need details if we are to send several thousand
dollaers worth of equipment.
(Nancy) For example, we don't include last names
or e-mail addy in the logs on the web site, but all this and much more is known
to our Secretary, etc.
(Jan) Roger, is this site far from Nancy's
place?
(Brent) Yes, Mary, the tiller alone is worth 3,000... There is other
items we are willing to send also.
(Jurian) Relaying to the 'viewing room'
can be turned off by saying "relay off" here
(Toni) I think as long as the
tiller is in safe keeping, and is being used, it is better than not being used.
It still belongs to the Inc.
(Mary) How much to get the tiller to
Roger?
(Shaul) You can write nolog before the message and it's automatically
excluded.
(Roger) Too late.
(Mary) Does Roger want the tiller?
(Brent)
Yes, Mary
Note: donor made known privately.
(Nancy) I want to say
that this donor is SUPERB! He send many items to us here and refused
reimbursement, etc. No problems from my end!
(Toni) He is sincere and has
been very helpful.
(Brent) Yes, Toni, I agree.... Roger, I agree that he is
solid. We will exclude his name from the log.
(Nancy) Shirley and I edit the
log for this type of info, anyway. Privacy issues, safety issues, etc. not
related to CONTENT directly.
(Jan) Even if Roger should be thrown off the
land, the tiller itself should not be lost in that process; that would be theft.
If the person in question is already known to Nancy, the lack of a signed
contract should not be a problem, I think.
(Toni) Someone should drive to
pick it up with a trailer.
(Shaul) You're right, Jan. the man can be trusted,
I feel.
(Roger) Anyway, the cost of transporting the tiller is variable. I
have suggested to Nancy and Brent that perhaps my ex-wife would be willing to
allow the use of her Ford Explorer to tow a trailer to Wisconsin and back. The
cost of this venture is the trip mileage and expenses plus trailer rental and
motel.
(Roger) The costs is estimated at about $400.
(Toni) It is better
than the tiller not being put to use.
(Roger) Another possibility is for me
to fly up and drive back a moving van. The flight is about $400 and the moving
van rental is also about $400.
(Toni) This is an investment for the seed
team?
(Nancy) Roger, is your ex FIRM in letting you do Option 1?
(Nancy) I
think the way we should work this approval, is approve Option 2, and let Roger
do Option 1 if he can, etc.
(Brent) Yes, Toni, I'm surprised that Roger
didn't fill you in.... 10 more acres of seed growing!
(Roger) Well, I spoke
to her this morning and she is not against. She has reservations about making a
long round trip on a weekend and then going to work without rest the following
day.
(Toni) To me that seems more work than one person could handle, even if
full time work.
(Nancy) Roger, would she let just YOU drive up?
(Roger)
No
(Roger) We get along, but not well enough for me to put 1200 miles on her
vehicle.
(Shaul) Nancy's right that we have to approve Option 2 and hope the
first one works. But number 1 can't be counted on, right?
(Brent) True
Sol...
(Nancy) Lets put this into perspective! A $3,000 tiller is sitting
idle, 2 years to go! Let's get the 10 acres going!
(Mary) I move we allot
Roger $1000 US. for getting the tiller to his 10 acre site.
(Nancy) The
nonprofit has the funds, and 10 acres will grow a LOT of seed.
(Nancy)
Especially if seed becomes UNAVAILABLE.
(Barry) Then let's get it
on!
(Toni) Who is going to do the work?
(Roger) Toni, I will make the
time.
(Roger) This is a huge priority to me and others.
(Nancy) I second
Mary's motion.
(Roger) After all, I am only a lowly graduate student that can
take another year or so to "finish" his degree.
(Toni) I hope you have
help.
(Roger) There will be help.
(Shaul) That's good to hear.
(Roger)
When needed (have faith).
(Mary) Toni, he doesn't have to use the entire 10
acres.
(Brent) A motion to vote has been made....all in favor of alocating
1000.00 to move the tiller to Roger vote yes or no.
(Barry) Yes
(Jurian)
Yes
(Jan) Yes
(Mary) Yes
(Roger) I need 10 acres to properly spread out
the varieties, etc.
(Toni) He could plant buckwheat to improve the
soil.
(Nancy) Re the work, the nonprofit can pay for hands, if they can be
found. I'd have worked the loaned land here if I could employ workers, but they
are not available.
(Brent) Yes
(Roger) Yes
(Shaul) Yes
(Nancy)
Shirley and I say: Yes
(Toni) Yes
(Mary) What else will Roger need? It
says "request funding for supplies"
(Brent) Motion carries... Congrats,
Roger... on the land and Equipment! :-)
(Shaul) Farm-hands are not available
in Wisconsin?
(Roger) Another funding issue is that the tiller will need to
be protected from the elements and vandalism/theft.
(Roger) Thanks
Brent.
(Nancy) Sol, a very low unemployment situ. Right
(Brent) Mary, that
was mostly for transportation, but Roger had mentioned a shed for
storage....
(Mary) Roger...what do you propose?
(Roger) I propose that a
shed is needed to lock the tiller and the other tools in while I'm not on
site.
(Nancy) Sol, I could not even get a farmer to come till the acres in
the fall, with his tractor drawn thingie, for $100 (as Ron had left and I was
overworked). This was a real easy $100! No takers! They are busy!
(Shaul)
bummer! it's good for the state, but bad for us.
(Nancy) I move we push this
to the next meeting for costing. General approval given now.
(Mary) OK, Roger
how much will that cost?
(Jan) How much for a shed?
(Nancy) We can say "in
general" this would be approved, look at the cost options later.
(Brent)
Roger can get the shed details for next meeting
(Roger) I have looked into
shed costs a bit and I think one of sufficient size (8'x10') can be purchased
and constructed (by me) for around $700.
(Shaul) Sure, it's obvious that we
would need something like that, to protect our property.
(Shaul) But are
there other options besides a shed?
(Shaul) Haven't been on a farm lately,
sorry...
(Roger) This would be a wooden shed which would stand up to the
weather better than a metal one.
(Mary) Will the tiller be there before the
next meeting?
(Roger) Perhaps.
(Mary) Then how will you keep it safe if
you have no money to build a shed?
(Nancy) Sol, dig a hole and bury it?
Unless a barn is available nearby and can be used ...
(Roger) The nearest
barn is 20 acres away.
(Shaul) Hehehehehe... I thought maybe locking it up,
or putting it up for money at somebody else's barn
(Shaul) Ah, so that's
out.
(Brent) Good point..... it will need protection right away.
(Nancy)
The tiller can be walked for a mile or more, we did that, to safekeeping in my
locked garage. Is there a structure nearby? Barn?
(Roger) Unless we buy a
trailer for me to haul it back and forth.
(Nancy) Roger, running the motor,
it's just a walk, not a push. Not hard to move.
(Shaul) 'Course the rent may
just come to about the same amount of money in the end.
(Toni) Maybe buying a
trailer is better than building a shed.
(Roger) Well, that might be a
possibility, except the fuel and time expense of the two-way trip.
(Nancy) It
"walks" itself, put into a gear mode that does not till. Easy to move, and I'd
suggest using the barn thingie, at start at least.
(Brent) So should we walk
it to the barn, or build the shed first?
(Mary) No, couldn't we just allocate
$700 and be done with it?
(Nancy) Roger, it "walks" as fast as YOU can, and
does not use a lot of gas for this, as it is not "working".
(Roger) That's a
good start. I will need to do this daily for several days to get the plots set
up before fall. It's not quite a mile, but it is overland, not on a
road.
(Nancy) Overland is not good, you get the $$ my thinking.
(Nancy) I
move to allocate $700 for shelter, Roger can return if this is not
enough.
(Mary) I second Nancy's motion.
(Roger) There should be an overage
of the transportation expenses...
(Nancy) Roger, this can be prepaid to you
if you need the funding, per our Bylaws, etc.
(Brent) A motion has been made
to allocate 700.00 for a shed. Vote or Not yes or no
(Mary) Yes
(Barry)
Yes
(Jurian) Yes
(Brent) Yes
(Toni) Yes
(Nancy) Shirley and I say:
Yes
(Shaul) But is that the exact sum or is that a preliminary
estimate?
(Shaul) Sorry, - I vote yes.
(Jan) Yes
(Roger) Estimate. 84
Lumber is having a sale and I fudged the sales tax.
(Nancy) Sol, Roger is
given a tad more on the move, perhaps a tad less on the shed, but it will all
work out, he's an honest man.
(Shaul) Oh of course.
(Nancy) In fact,
given his track record, you'll have more documentation and penny pinching that
you can stand!
(Brent) The motion carries....700.00 is allocated for a
storage shed for the tiller.
(Roger) Thanks, everyone. I'll get the shed kit
order right away.
(Nancy) Roger, if you need a pre-pay check (as we did for
Mary re the copy machine) just let me know!
(Toni) Congrats, Roger!
(Mary)
Good luck Roger.... Let us know how much weight you lose!
(Shaul) Great show,
man.
(Roger) I have a credit card... I'll pick up a check when it's said and
done.
(Brent) Great, Roger.... Mary had a good point earlier. Will you build
the shed before getting the tiller?
(Roger) Yea, I'll get the kit ordered
this week and have my associate get with me to clear a spot for it.
(Brent)
OK, Roger..... Well, great meeting people! Do I have a motion to
adjourn?
(Mary) I move to adjourn.
(Roger) Hopefully no more than 10 or 20
pounds, Mary! I'd be too low in body fat after that.
(Brent)
Second?
(Barry) Second
(Mary) (-:
(Shaul) right!
(Brent) OK, meeting
is officially adjourned!
