What does SAC have in it's possession? I thought that it had a reasonable
library....

Auction for any of SAC's items would be the best way to do that, perhaps a
silent one
would be better/quicker. But why not expand/promote the Show/Tell section a
bit to include anyone
who brings something (not club stuff) to sell. I don't imagine that you'd have
more than a couple of
items every month, and the months that do have a large number of items would
only make the meetings
a bit more interesting, and most of that business could be conducted at the
break. I believe that a less
"informal" meeting setting would make them more enjoyable. Not that we should
do away with the
biz part, which seems to be much more under control now than last year, but
keep the "biz" to a minimum.
Does this add anything useful?
