	[13:03] <erixoltan> That's all I know.		[13:03] <erixoltan> That's all I know.
	[13:04] <jokeefe> ok, thanks		[13:04] <jokeefe> ok, thanks
			[13:05] <jokeefe> well, that is all I got. suggestions for next week's agenda?
			[13:07] <erixoltan> ways to increase membership.
			[13:07] <Brady> What is Massachusett's position on the Pirate Wheel?
			[13:07] <erixoltan> As an agenda item?
			[13:07] <erixoltan> Or are you just asking?
			[13:08] <Brady> As an agenda item.
			[13:08] <jokeefe> good suggestion, erixoltan, will add it
			[13:08] <Brady> I plan to introduce it at Washington's Board Meeting Friday.
			[13:09] <Brady> Though not all of his conclusions may be totally acceptable to the average American at first glance...he does seem to capture Pirate principles fairly eloquently.
			[13:09] <erixoltan> Will be interesting to hear what they say. I think it's a good question because some people see it as an invitation to expand beyond 3 issues, and others see it differently in some way that I don't understand.
			[13:09] <Brady> I did see your post, Eric.
			[13:10] <jokeefe> need to reread it myself.
			[13:10] <Brady> I personally was attracted to far more than just copyright reform.
			[13:10] <Brady> Sorry, Erik*
			[13:10] <erixoltan> np.
			[13:11] <erixoltan> I am going to form a faction or a splinter group that will expand radically beyond 3 issues.
			[13:11] <Brady> Not sure if that is necessary.
			[13:11] == GrimJack [~Grimjack@24-177-35-99.dhcp.oxfr.ma.charter.com] has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
			[13:11] <jokeefe> please no splinter groups
			[13:11] <Brady> All it takes is consensus on shared principles.
			[13:12] <SplendidSpoon> We are "party of OPEN" here
			[13:12] <erixoltan> My thought is that it may be better to have a faction that agrees on certain issues than to try to move everyone against their will.
			[13:12] <jokeefe> aye
			[13:12] <SplendidSpoon> So we support open government, open culture
			[13:12] <jokeefe> aye to OPEN, though factions within the pirates aren't bad
			[13:12] <SplendidSpoon> Which are pirate-y but also can apply to social issues
			[13:13] <SplendidSpoon> MA is quite liberal on social issues, and i think saying we are OPEN means that too

			[12:16] <SplendidSpoon> I really wanted to go and see her speak

			[12:16] <jokeefe> cool
			[12:16] <SplendidSpoon> Wake up the earth thing is the same day right
			[12:16] <SplendidSpoon> ?
			[12:16] <jokeefe> yes, but I haven't gotten confirmation that we have a table from Lucia yet
			[12:16] <SplendidSpoon> ok
			[12:17] <SplendidSpoon> Well ROFLcon is Fri and Sat
			[12:17] <jokeefe> will tell you when i know
			[12:17] <SplendidSpoon> Was Lucia planning on manning the table?
			[12:17] <SplendidSpoon> I know I said I would but....now I know about ROFLcon.....
			[12:17] <jokeefe> She mentioned that she could for some of it, but need to confirm.
			[12:18] <jokeefe> I know she has been busy with family.
			[12:18] <jokeefe> I will check my schedule. might be able to be there in the afternoon
			[12:18] <SplendidSpoon> My friend speaks at 11
			[12:19] <SplendidSpoon> Do we have new pamphlets printed?
			[12:20] <SplendidSpoon> I think the ROFLcon attendees would actually be a really good group to reach out to
			[12:20] <jokeefe> no, but will be by Friday
			[12:20] <jokeefe> agree
			[12:20] <jokeefe> Would it be better if you worked out the schedule with Lucia or should I?
			[12:20] <erixoltan> I can't help, I have a son with his 10th birthday party.
			[12:21] <SplendidSpoon> ooooh happy birthday to him :D
			[12:21] <jokeefe> yay!
			[12:21] <SplendidSpoon> Do you know the time that wake up the earth is at?
			[12:21] <erixoltan> Imagine a room full of nerdy boys playing dungeons and dragons while they eat cake...
			[12:21] <jokeefe> lol
			[12:21] <SplendidSpoon> Sounds like ROFLcon actually lol
			[12:22] <erixoltan> lmao
			[12:22] <jokeefe> my son would be minecraft & eating cake
			[12:22] <SplendidSpoon> my son would be....wait nvm
			[12:22] <jokeefe> :-)
			[12:22] <SplendidSpoon> ok well I'm going to get a ROFLcon pass bc I REALLY wanna go
			[12:22] <jokeefe> For the film fest: erix, will you have the videos on a computer?
			[12:22] <SplendidSpoon> I'd wear Pirate Gear and bring pamphlets to it as well
			[12:22] <erixoltan> Yeah, I was thinking about how to handle that. I got the idea to make a DVD so that the films would queue themselves up or something.
			[12:23] <jokeefe> I can get the projector to SplendidSpoon
			[12:23] <SplendidSpoon> Projector to me?
			[12:23] <erixoltan> Either way I'll make sure to have them. I don't have night of the living dead.
			[12:24] <jokeefe> pirate bay? since it is public domain now?
			[12:24] <erixoltan> Will take a look. Would be embarrassing if we couldn't get it.
			[12:25] <jokeefe> rip from dvd, again since in the public domain?
			[12:26] <erixoltan> Yeah, I'll work on getting it and let you know.
			[12:27] <jokeefe> I cannot make it until later, kids soccer, so ok if I get you the projector, Splendid?
			[12:27] <SplendidSpoon> Projector for what?
			[12:27] <erixoltan> What is the resolution on that projector?
			[12:27] <SplendidSpoon> the film festival?
			[12:28] <erixoltan> What is Night of the Living Dead Re-Animation??
			[12:28] <jokeefe> same as the one we used last time. 720p?
			[12:29] <jokeefe> spinoff
			[12:29] <erixoltan> aha. Will skip that one.
			[12:29] <jokeefe> by guy who worked with Romero on the first one
			[12:29] <jokeefe> but not the later ones
			[12:32] <erixoltan> I'm downloading the movie now.
			[12:32] <jokeefe> k
			[12:32] <jokeefe> So Item 2. JP on the ballot
			[12:32] <jokeefe> He says he has 270 signatures and is handing them in
			[12:32] <jokeefe> Should be enough to get on the ballot.
			[12:33] <erixoltan> HOLY MOLEY that's amazingly good news.
			[12:33] <erixoltan> Is he the first to actually make it on the ballot for US Rep then?
			[12:34] <jokeefe> State rep. I think Ryan Moffit is on in FL. They just have to pay a filing fee.
			[12:38] <SplendidSpoon> Ok guys I confirmed going to ROFLcon at MIT on sat morn, if I can get the posters and pamphlets from someone before that I will wear pirate gear and put up posters and pass out pamphlets while I'm there
			[12:38] <SplendidSpoon> also I'm relieved JP got the sigs
			[12:38] <erixoltan> Do you want some posters sent to you?
			[12:38] <jokeefe> I will get pamphlets to you. the poster is on the website.
			[12:38] <SplendidSpoon> Sure
			[12:38] <SplendidSpoon> ok cool
			[12:38] <jokeefe> or that works
			[12:38] <jokeefe> We have pretty much covered upcoming events except pride.
			[12:39] <SplendidSpoon> ok
			[12:40] <erixoltan> Download complete.
			[12:41] <SplendidSpoon> So what needs to be done for Pride
			[12:41] <jokeefe> get people to it
			[12:41] <jokeefe> marching mostly.
			[12:41] <SplendidSpoon> Well I have to go to a meeting about it right?
			[12:41] <jokeefe> that to.
			[12:41] <SplendidSpoon> I never got any emails or anything about it
			[12:42] <jokeefe> hmmm... will send you what I am getting
			[12:42] <SplendidSpoon> ok
			[12:42] <jokeefe> need to ask for more marshalls too
			[12:42] <jokeefe> If I give you some people to call, either of you have time to call them and see if they can attend either the film fest or pride?
			[12:43] <SplendidSpoon> When do you want us to call>?
			[12:44] <jokeefe> whenever you have time.
