From 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm, we conducted an uninterrupted, fun, business meeting:

• We discussed the status of Starfleet, Region 2 and the ship.
• That the new administration has almost caught up with everything.
• How Region 2 is trying to stir up some spirit for the next convention.
• That the ship will remain with Starfleet as one of the oldest ships in Region 2!
• We discussed the upcoming Shatner convention.
• Bill, Jane and Jon are definitely going, while Tasha and I may be going.
• We will be placing a ticket order this week
• Driving up early Sat, going to Busch Gardens, staying overnight, then seeing Shatner on Sunday
• Note: Jon will be asking Mr. Shatner the combination of the safe in episode 46
• We also discussed our potential Region 2 involvement in the next VULKON.
• Jon discussed updating the fleet promotional bulletin boards that we used to maintain
• The ships of Starfleet pin map of Region 2, the USA and the World
• The construction of the Region 2 picture board (our other bulletin board)
• We also discussed the Region 2 parties at the VULKON.
• We then took some time to meet our newest crew member, Omar Barsimantov...
• We told Omar about personas, their basis and development.
• We reminisced how Terry Christian met new crew members and help them develop their personas.
• We revealed to Omar each other's personas, with Jon and myself going into detail (unfortunately).
• We all learned a lot about Jon's android persona and its development (I was surprised)
• And I discussed my time shifting/quantum leaping persona. (What a loony!)
• Bill Litz briefly discussed his Vulcan heritage (a heritage of "love"!),
• Alan Ricotta touched on his "hidden names", and enlightened us with cheese lore.
• We finished off with a discussion about the stories that Terry wrote that featured our personas.
• Jon then led us through a review of StarQuest Trivia (most of us didn't have a clue).
• We decided to meet again, next Friday 8/22, at Jon's house.

• While Omar and Marco played chess,
• Alan, Jon, and Bill Bloom played a Star Trek video game (the Klingon won, boo),
• while I watched (studied) both (Note: Thanks to Bill for bringing the ST video game).
• Then we changed up and Marco, Omar, Jon and I played the ST video game (the Klingon lost, yea!),

while Alan and Bill relaxed.
 

The next meeting of the U.S.S. StarQuest will be held at 8/22/97 at Jon's house, 6-? Tasha will be in attendance at this weeks meeting, so I need everyone to contribute even more to this meeting! Bring your ideas, your stories, your opinions, your articles, your concerns, your trivia, your clothes, your friends.
