[9:20pm] malt: do you want me to get contact deets for the boston organizer?

[9:24pm] malt: yes
[9:24pm] jokeefe: Were you thinking in person or virtually, malt?
[9:25pm] malt: in person
[9:26pm] Joe: I don't understand enough about them, I will defer
[9:27pm] malt: it's a demand to release the IP on the vaccines so the US doesn't own a monopoly
[9:27pm] jokeefe: Joe / srevilak - should we endorse the Free the Vaccine Protest ?
[9:27pm] malt: the polio vaccine was released, leading to the global eradication of polio (in effect)
[9:28pm] malt: there's a concern here that protecting IP will slow the vaccination rate to the point that COVID mutates to make the vaccine ineffective
[9:28pm] Joe: O, thank you for the explanation. I 100% support, esp in India
[9:28pm] jokeefe: thanks malt

[9:35pm] jokeefe: <editing ensues>
[9:36pm] malt: Before everyone wanders off for the evening
[9:36pm] malt: I'm still in contact with the dice manufacturers in china
[9:36pm] malt: they've got tiny pirate ships they could put in jumbo D20s
[9:36pm] malt: how would we like to sell 500 pirate ship dice?
[9:37pm] malt: i'm thinking translucent plastic with a little opalescent shimmer dust, with silver ink in the numbers
[9:37pm] jokeefe: how much?
[9:38pm] jokeefe: While we continue to edit the platform, when do we want to have the next Pirate Moot after the one on Saturday?
