Meeting called to order at 6:58 PM

President's Report: To those of you online who don't come to meetings, we need you to come to meetings (especially when we want to pass motions). In theory, we can now allocate! The money we allocated for during the last meeting should be going through to-night. This Wednesday (September 17th) is the Involvement Fair, you should all come and help out.

Vice President: The building manager told us that she's not happy with the all the property control stuff. Also, the garbage can needs to be emptied more regularly. We'll probably be keeping the garbage can inside the lounge from now on. Clean, dammit.

Treasurer's Report: The budget has not been decided yet.

Secretary's Report: I apologise for not posting the minutes to the Yahoo group more promptly. Thanks to The Jim for posting them for me. I'll be posting them there from now on. I still don't have access to post them to sf4m.org, so anyone who is able to post them there, please post them for me.

Librarian's Report: I found prices for just about everything on the Request List. Some books will still need to be found from sources other than Amazon.com. I'm going to start working on the shiftholder schedule as soon as I have enough people interested.

Props to Lukas and to AA for finishing Aakin's donation. Aakin donated a total of 621 books. Out of those, 542 were genre and 249 were not tribbles! We'll be handing out a bunch of the tribbles during the Involvement Fair.

Anyone who has the current admin password (for the Macs in the lounge), give it to Roman. Various CS people (especially Neils), Orange and Sam have cookies for you if you come and help us with our computers (we currently have no internet).

AC Report: Yay May for donating The 10th Kingdom. Yay Roman for regaining his key. Yay Anthony for rejoining the mighty AC Army. Boo Orange for forgetting to post about the reference section, she'll fix it soon. Come to the Involvement Fair this Wednesday (during campus lifetime), wear your Forum shirt if you have one.

Sub AC For Life: Everything is still there. I added Dick Tracy and the extended cut of The Punisher. And we'll be getting Batman: Mask of the Phantasm soon.

Historian: *Victor tells a story about rolling Bill down a hill in a barrel*

Committees
PR: I will be at the Involvement Fair the entire time, so I will know who comes and who doesn't. We would appreciate anyone who has extra printing allowance to help us out.

Old Business
- CLEAN!

- The chalk board is not for curse words!

New Business
Lisa: During the Involvement Fair; try minimize Magic playing, keep the TV on, and try to keep the Forum as welcoming as possible for new people.

Roman: I would like to allocate $50 to the Resource Mate program to renew our license until next September. Seconded. Acclimated.

I would like to allocate no more than $210 to Amazon.com. Seconded. Acclimated.
Some books that are in this allocation - The Looking Glass Wars, Fables vol. 10, all of the Nightwatch series that is available in English, the remainder of the Twilight series, some more Spider Robinson books, and a surprise book that I want to start doing dramatic readings from every week.

Ian: There are those of you who have contacts to various old Forumites - among them, Jim Frenkel - we the E-Board (particularly Hoskie, our secretary) would like to also have this contact information. We would very much like to have our founding fathers and mothers at the 40th celebration. Don't say you'll just do it yourself, PLEASE GIVE US THE CONTACT INFORMATION. If you feel like contacting them yourself as well, feel free to do so.

Announcements
Ian: Fringe sucked. I don't care what Fox is trying to sell to us.
Roman: Rebuttal!

Everyone: Happy Birthday, Drow!

AA: Heroes premiers next week!
