I think you should take into consideration travel time for non-Star Tour 
members when changing the meeting agenda and time for parts of it. It takes me 
30 - 45 minutes to get to the meeting depending on traffic and 25 - 30 minutes 
going home after the meeting depending on traffic. It is not worth my travel 
time to attend a 25 - 30 minute meeting. 
In addition the calendar lists it as a public meeting so if non-members attend 
they may be disappointed in the schedule change.
If this MOM is going to discuss the Star Tours and that part is a closed 
meeting then to be fair to the public and non-star tour members who have to 
travel a distance to attend the whole meeting should be closed and no other 
business should be discussed and the public calendar changed to reflect the 
change. The other business can be scheduled for another MOM since it does not 
seem to be as important.Paul

I agree that non Star Tour members not participate in the discussion, but that 
is why we are having the first part of the MOM be for everyone, and then the 
second half be for Star Tour members only and others can leave. Take care, Sam

it’s a much better idea (and thought we had definitively agreed) for this 
specific discussion be for Star Tours members only.  They are the only people 
who have enough experience to make good judgments about the issues.  It is also 
not fair to have people who will not in any feel the effects of the decisions 
to be making or even having input to those decisions.  Hopefully we can make 
this change.  Terri?   Thanks, Eric

 Subject: [pasmembers] For the Meeting of the Minds this Thursday Feb12 - send 
discussion topics      I hope to see all PAS Members at the Meeting of the 
Minds to start with. We will open up to the few topics that are not related to 
the Star Tours group topic, and then those who wish to depart for the night, 
may, and those who are IN the Star Tours Group or are interested in talking 
about it and giving their input or just listening, can stay. My guess is we 
will have a great turnout, and a lot of snacks to share.    President Bruce 
will provide the bottled water, but please bring a snack to share and let's 
make this a party!        What makes this a party? Food, Friends, Great 
conversation. Anyone is welcoem to attned, but if you bring someone who isn't 
part of the Star Tours Team or a PAS member, you might want to leave with them. 
So, consider not having extra folk with us at this meeting, this time.        
We will not be doing anything spectacular due to the topic at hand will 
probably be a minimum of 1.5 hour discussion (Star Tours Group). So, I'd like 
to devote most of the time to that purpose. I will update the MOM's Agenda so 
everyone knows what we have planned, in a day or so.        Let's make this 
meeting productive, a party, and fun for all who attend.        I'm attaching 
the Agenda, the way it stands right now, before revisions, and will probably 
send it out again, Thursday morning, revised to fit the needs of this meeting.  
      We will see you there!    Have a spectacular Monday!   Terri, Event 
Coordinator       If you are part of the Star Tours Team and you can't make the 
meeting, please be sure to read the review so you are up to-date on any 
changes, ideas, etc.        I appreciate all input. The attached MOM's Agenda 
was from Jan 19 (last update). I will get that revised before the meeting, just 
not today.        What I would like from the Star Tours Team is email me, not 
the group, a list of sub topics to talk about, specific to the Star Tours team 
topic.       Example:       How much to charge for star parties?   School star 
parties   Scout star parties       etc... I want to make an organized list, and 
see if we can't put it into a format that can be discussed, and then if needed, 
voted on. We aren't really voting, we are agreeing to stuff. Your input is 
requested. So, break down your discussion ideas, and let's make a list of what 
we need to discuss, and i will put it into an outline, organized format for on 
the board, so we can stay within a topic at a time and finish it's discussion, 
before moving on to the next topic. Thanks for your help in forming this list.  
                --      Good friends are like stars. You don't always
 see them, but you always know they are there.
