[9:42pm] Bluestreak: We'll miss you!
[9:42pm] Bluestreak: GMTA
[9:43pm] jokeefe: so what should our theme be?  I threw out the idea of the surveillance cameras
[9:43pm] jokeefe: could use the pirate ship as a pirate ship instead of the surveillance camera post
[9:43pm] Bluestreak: I always feel like somebody's watching me.
[9:44pm] srevilak: I liked the idea of surveillance cameras
[9:44pm] jokeefe: like the idea of some dressed up as pirates and others as FBI/NSA who get chased around by the pirates
[9:44pm] Bluestreak: LOL
[9:44pm] Bluestreak: Hee hee
[9:45pm] black_van: yeah sounds cool
[9:45pm] Bluestreak: Turn the cameras on them!
[9:45pm] srevilak: Hmm . trying to think about how one dresses up as big brother
[9:45pm] Joe: ^^^
[9:45pm] Joe: Big brother is watching you
[9:45pm] Bluestreak: Black suit black glasses
[9:45pm] Bluestreak: Ear piece.
[9:45pm] jokeefe: double plus good comrade
[9:45pm] jokeefe: could do flyers that are big brother is watching you with a slash through it looking like it was vandalized by pirates.

[9:47pm] Bluestreak: I LOVE IT
[9:47pm] jokeefe: BTW: figured out a way to keep the mast on without wires: clamps!
[9:47pm] jokeefe: lol, Kendra
[9:48pm] jokeefe: so the pirates vs snoops works, then?
[9:49pm] Bluestreak: Dibbs on being a Pirate!
[9:49pm] Joe: I think we should have a pirate walking with duct tape on their mouth. Then they break free from the people in black suits yelling about the surveillance state while the black suits re-silence the person
[9:49pm] black_van: dibbs on NSA
[9:50pm] Joe: anything along those lines would be good
[9:50pm] Bluestreak: Ow.
[9:50pm] Joe: obviously not real duct tape
[9:50pm] black_van: going up and demanding information from people
[9:51pm] Kendra: walk around and inconspicously peek over people's shoulders

[9:55pm] jokeefe: sounds good, Joe

[10:00pm] Bluestreak:
[10:00pm] black_van: gtg bye folks
[10:00pm] jokeefe: good night, black_van
[10:00pm] black_van left the chat room. (Quit: Web client closed)
[10:00pm] jokeefe: Conference
[10:00pm] Bluestreak: So I need strong backs in the AM
[10:01pm] jokeefe: flyers on up
[10:01pm] Bluestreak: I may be able to wrangle help from strangers in the PM
[10:01pm] jokeefe: s/on/are/g
[10:02pm] jokeefe: I can help with setup, but I will be at a soccer game in the later afternoon
[10:02pm] Bluestreak: Thank you.
[10:03pm] jokeefe: For the conference we have a keynote, lunch and it looks like five hour long sessions
[10:04pm] jokeefe: we have two panels: crowd funding & open gov, maybe NDAA and one talk
[10:04pm] srevilak: haven't heard back from wendy yet.  I'll ping her agai
[10:04pm] jokeefe: thanks
[10:04pm] Joe: I can help with the setup
[10:04pm] Bluestreak: My speaker idea didn't/hasn't panned out yet.
[10:05pm] jokeefe: NDAA?
[10:05pm] Bluestreak: Oh no Rich is a go
[10:05pm] Bluestreak: I have another idea. Send good juju
[10:05pm] jokeefe: ok.  We need to find other panelists for it?
[10:05pm] Bluestreak: Rich is all set for the NDAA panel.
[10:05pm] jokeefe: sending good ju ju
[10:06pm] Bluestreak: Oh.
[10:06pm] jokeefe: Right, but is it just Rich or should we have others?
[10:06pm] Bluestreak: OK I will work on NDAA panel, too.
[10:06pm] jokeefe: thanks, would be good to have more voices.
[10:06pm] Bluestreak: Rich could do it by himself, the man can talk
[10:07pm] jokeefe: yes, I remember
[10:07pm] Bluestreak: He needs to be counter balanced
[10:08pm] jokeefe: I will add that as one of the panels then
[10:08pm] jokeefe: Any other suggestions?
[10:09pm] jokeefe: We have govt. surveillance, NDAA, open gov, crowdfunding
[10:09pm] Kendra: Would it make sense to have a panel about CISPA, EPCA, and similar legislation that is being tossed around, or is it too late to add to the program?  I'm assuming they will come up in these discussions. India just passed a widespread surveillace law.
[10:10pm] jokeefe: who should we invite to it?
[10:10pm] Bluestreak: Zombie surveillance bills that keep being rewritten
[10:10pm] jokeefe: Greg Housh could be on it.
[10:10pm] jokeefe: You wrote the article for the blog, you want to be on it Kendra?
[10:10pm] Bluestreak: 2nd
[10:11pm] Kendra: I can talk about CISPA and some recent developments with Obama trying to pass it through an executive order.
[10:12pm] jokeefe: sounds good.
[10:12pm] jokeefe: what should we call it?
[10:12pm] Bluestreak: Good!
[10:13pm] Bluestreak: The panel?
[10:13pm] jokeefe: yes
[10:14pm] Bluestreak: Legislating our on-line privacy away
[10:14pm] Bluestreak: Creeping surveillance
[10:14pm] Bluestreak: state
[10:14pm] Bluestreak: The
[10:15pm] Bluestreak: The Creeping Surveillance State.
[10:15pm] jokeefe: what about trade treaties? TPP, TAFTA, ACTA?
[10:15pm] srevilak: The United Surveillance State of America
[10:15pm] jokeefe: ++
[10:15pm] Bluestreak: Same panel?
[10:16pm] Bluestreak: Different panel?
[10:16pm] jokeefe: alex wanted to do a talk called - Government Power in 2020
[10:17pm] jokeefe: sorry, yes different panel
[10:17pm] Bluestreak: Regarding trade treaties?
[10:17pm] jokeefe: yes, trade treaties - would allow us to bring in unions, greens, etc.
[10:18pm] Kendra:  It's basically a version of the same legislation without the same name.  Give me a second I was reading about this today.  http://rt.com/usa/epic-foia-internet-surveillance-350/ It's safe to assume the internets are monitored at this point.  It's a program called  Enhanced Cybersecurity Services (ECS) .
[10:18pm] illunatic: hello
[10:19pm] illunatic: who needs le ops?
[10:19pm] illunatic:
[10:19pm] Kendra: I can speak about this.
[10:19pm] You were promoted to operator by illunatic.
[10:19pm] illunatic: k go!
[10:19pm] illunatic: jokeefe
[10:19pm] jokeefe: thanks!
[10:19pm] You set a limit on the number of room members to 25.
[10:20pm] illunatic: is ChanServ not an op bot?
[10:20pm] You set a limit on the number of room members to 25.
[10:20pm] jokeefe: thought it was
[10:20pm] illunatic: so how are things going as of late? making use of the brief publicity that Iceland's recent win received?
[10:22pm] jokeefe: so focused on things here
[10:22pm] Bluestreak: Sorta.
[10:22pm] jokeefe: thanks, Kendra
[10:23pm] Bluestreak: I talk the Iceland wins up a lot in conversation!
[10:23pm] jokeefe: ++
[10:24pm] Bluestreak: Things are happening this year illunatic
[10:24pm] Kendra: I just talked to Socialist Alternative and they got 2500 signatures to put Seamus whelan on the ballot for City Council.  They seem interested in how third parties are approaching running candidates.  Are we talking about running candidates in any local elections?
[10:25pm] Bluestreak: Not local, no.
[10:25pm] jokeefe: looking to 2014.
[10:25pm] Kendra: Might be conversation starter or discussion topic once we get through this round of events.
[10:26pm] jokeefe: yes
[10:26pm] jokeefe: we need a training session
[10:27pm] Bluestreak: September?
[10:27pm] Bluestreak: Too soon?
[10:28pm] Kendra: From talking to them it's just standing around with a clip board, but it gets people talking.  Also they were surprised at how they exceeded their goals in time and the number of signatures.  I don't ecpect we would be prepared for the November elections here, but we should pay attention to how it's done.
[10:28pm] jokeefe: july/august - hot and slow is a good time to start
[10:29pm] jokeefe: how to to run videos are on my todo list
[10:29pm] jokeefe: have some slides/video of my talk from the last conference
[10:30pm] jokeefe: suggest we get the monthly meetings going, then start on candidate recruitment
[10:30pm] jokeefe: Feb. 2014 is when nomination papers are available for state rep. elections.
[10:30pm] jokeefe: town elections are the first half of every year.
[10:31pm] jokeefe: so starting in july/august allows is to get a jump on those elections as well.  elected town meeting is probably the easiest election to run in.
[10:32pm] jokeefe: LP candidate recruitment guide - https://www.lp.org/files/crm.pdf
[10:32pm] srevilak: Hey all, I'm going to have to clock out for the evening
[10:32pm] Kendra: nite steve
[10:32pm] jokeefe: understood, night
[10:33pm] Shidash left the chat room. (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
[10:33pm] srevilak left the chat room. (Quit: leaving)
[10:33pm] Kendra: Have we gotten through most of the agenda?

[10:35pm] jokeefe: motion to adjourn?
[10:35pm] Bluestreak: 2nd

[9:42pm] Bluestreak: GMTA [9:43pm] jokeefe: so what should our theme be? I threw out the idea of the surveillance cameras [9:43pm] jokeefe: could use the pirate ship as a pirate ship instead of the surveillance camera post [9:43pm] Bluestreak: I always feel like somebody's watching me. [9:44pm] srevilak: I liked the idea of surveillance cameras [9:44pm] jokeefe: like the idea of some dressed up as pirates and others as FBI/NSA who get chased around by the pirates [9:44pm] Bluestreak: LOL [9:44pm] Bluestreak: Hee hee [9:45pm] black_van: yeah sounds cool [9:45pm] Bluestreak: Turn the cameras on them! [9:45pm] srevilak: Hmm . trying to think about how one dresses up as big brother [9:45pm] Joe: ^^^ [9:45pm] Joe: Big brother is watching you [9:45pm] Bluestreak: Black suit black glasses [9:45pm] Bluestreak: Ear piece. [9:45pm] jokeefe: double plus good comrade [9:45pm] jokeefe: could do flyers that are big brother is watching you with a slash through it looking like it was vandalized by pirates. [9:45pm] Bluestreak: lol [9:46pm] Bluestreak: So... Dana again? [9:46pm] srevilak: Which reminds me. Need to pick up a pair of black leather pants [9:46pm] black_van: people will relate to this [9:46pm] jokeefe: ooh la la [9:46pm] Bluestreak: I love you guys! [9:46pm] jokeefe: if dana can. could put it out to folks [9:47pm] jokeefe: really pouring outside [9:47pm] Bluestreak: I will bring it up (gently) when he gets back to me about the other thing. [9:47pm] Kendra: how about the david byrne big suit from stop making sense [9:47pm] Bluestreak: I LOVE IT [9:47pm] jokeefe: BTW: figured out a way to keep the mast on without wires: clamps! [9:47pm] jokeefe: lol, Kendra [9:48pm] jokeefe: so the pirates vs snoops works, then? [9:49pm] Bluestreak: Dibbs on being a Pirate! [9:49pm] Joe: I think we should have a pirate walking with duct tape on their mouth. Then they break free from the people in black suits yelling about the surveillance state while the black suits re-silence the person [9:49pm] black_van: dibbs on NSA [9:50pm] Joe: anything along those lines would be good [9:50pm] Bluestreak: Ow. [9:50pm] Joe: obviously not real duct tape [9:50pm] black_van: going up and demanding information from people [9:51pm] Kendra: walk around and inconspicously peek over people's shoulders [9:51pm] Joe: Oh wow [9:52pm] Bluestreak: This is fun and all, but World [9:52pm] Bluestreak: s Fair in Central Square is next [9:52pm] Bluestreak: Some logistics? [9:52pm] jokeefe: could have them recording the crowd,, and the pirates get in their faces [9:52pm] Bluestreak: Before the meeting is over. [9:53pm] jokeefe: what time do we need to be at World Fair? [9:53pm] jokeefe: to setup [9:53pm] Bluestreak: What kind of cameras? [9:53pm] jokeefe: video [9:53pm] Bluestreak: I know that! [9:53pm] Bluestreak: I have have is a flip cam [9:53pm] jokeefe: whatever we can scrounge [9:53pm] Bluestreak: and a dinosaur [9:54pm] jokeefe: World's Fair: what time is setup?

They are pretty cheap [9:54pm] Bluestreak: Well, it starts at noon [9:55pm] Bluestreak: OK sorry to disrupt [9:55pm] jokeefe: sounds good, Joe [9:55pm] Bluestreak: Finish Parade talk [9:55pm] jokeefe: So probably setup is 10-11am?

Where'd the table come from last time? [9:57pm] Bluestreak: They provide nothing but the sapce. [9:57pm] Bluestreak: This might be new this year [9:57pm] Bluestreak: The Eventbrite registration page was very clear. [9:57pm] jokeefe: it will be outside [9:58pm] Bluestreak: Yes, we are paid [9:58pm] Bluestreak: I double checked with Robin [9:58pm] SplendidSpoon: oh I see it's outside this year [9:58pm] SplendidSpoon: damn I wanna be near the stage [9:59pm] Bluestreak: I think they will assign us a spot? Pure conjecture. [9:59pm] Bluestreak: I can always ask Robin. [9:59pm] SplendidSpoon: yea probably [10:00pm] jokeefe: thanks for keeping on it, Bluestreak [10:00pm] Bluestreak: [10:00pm] black_van: gtg bye folks [10:00pm] jokeefe: good night, black_van [10:00pm] black_van left the chat room. (Quit: Web client closed) [10:00pm] jokeefe: Conference [10:00pm] Bluestreak: So I need strong backs in the AM [10:01pm] jokeefe: flyers on up [10:01pm] Bluestreak: I may be able to wrangle help from strangers in the PM [10:01pm] jokeefe: s/on/are/g [10:02pm] jokeefe: I can help with setup, but I will be at a soccer game in the later afternoon [10:02pm] Bluestreak: Thank you. [10:03pm] jokeefe: For the conference we have a keynote, lunch and it looks like five hour long sessions [10:04pm] jokeefe: we have two panels: crowd funding & open gov, maybe NDAA and one talk [10:04pm] srevilak: haven't heard back from wendy yet. I'll ping her agai [10:04pm] jokeefe: thanks [10:04pm] Joe: I can help with the setup [10:04pm] Bluestreak: My speaker idea didn't/hasn't panned out yet. [10:05pm] jokeefe: NDAA? [10:05pm] Bluestreak: Oh no Rich is a go [10:05pm] Bluestreak: I have another idea. Send good juju [10:05pm] jokeefe: ok. We need to find other panelists for it? [10:05pm] Bluestreak: Rich is all set for the NDAA panel. [10:05pm] jokeefe: sending good ju ju [10:06pm] Bluestreak: Oh. [10:06pm] jokeefe: Right, but is it just Rich or should we have others? [10:06pm] Bluestreak: OK I will work on NDAA panel, too. [10:06pm] jokeefe: thanks, would be good to have more voices. [10:06pm] Bluestreak: Rich could do it by himself, the man can talk [10:07pm] jokeefe: yes, I remember [10:07pm] Bluestreak: He needs to be counter balanced [10:08pm] jokeefe: I will add that as one of the panels then [10:08pm] jokeefe: Any other suggestions? [10:09pm] jokeefe: We have govt. surveillance, NDAA, open gov, crowdfunding [10:09pm] Kendra: Would it make sense to have a panel about CISPA, EPCA, and similar legislation that is being tossed around, or is it too late to add to the program? I'm assuming they will come up in these discussions. India just passed a widespread surveillace law. [10:10pm] jokeefe: who should we invite to it? [10:10pm] Bluestreak: Zombie surveillance bills that keep being rewritten [10:10pm] jokeefe: Greg Housh could be on it. [10:10pm] jokeefe: You wrote the article for the blog, you want to be on it Kendra? [10:10pm] Bluestreak: 2nd [10:11pm] Kendra: I can talk about CISPA and some recent developments with Obama trying to pass it through an executive order. [10:12pm] jokeefe: sounds good. [10:12pm] jokeefe: what should we call it? [10:12pm] Bluestreak: Good! [10:13pm] Bluestreak: The panel? [10:13pm] jokeefe: yes [10:14pm] Bluestreak: Legislating our on-line privacy away [10:14pm] Bluestreak: Creeping surveillance [10:14pm] Bluestreak: state [10:14pm] Bluestreak: The [10:15pm] Bluestreak: The Creeping Surveillance State. [10:15pm] jokeefe: what about trade treaties? TPP, TAFTA, ACTA? [10:15pm] srevilak: The United Surveillance State of America [10:15pm] jokeefe: ++ [10:15pm] Bluestreak: Same panel? [10:16pm] Bluestreak: Different panel? [10:16pm] jokeefe: alex wanted to do a talk called - Government Power in 2020 [10:17pm] jokeefe: sorry, yes different panel [10:17pm] Bluestreak: Regarding trade treaties? [10:17pm] jokeefe: yes, trade treaties - would allow us to bring in unions, greens, etc. [10:18pm] Kendra: It's basically a version of the same legislation without the same name. Give me a second I was reading about this today. http://rt.com/usa/epic-foia-internet-surveillance-350/ It's safe to assume the internets are monitored at this point. It's a program called Enhanced Cybersecurity Services (ECS) . [10:18pm] illunatic: hello [10:19pm] illunatic: who needs le ops? [10:19pm] illunatic: [10:19pm] Kendra: I can speak about this. [10:19pm] You were promoted to operator by illunatic. [10:19pm] illunatic: k go! [10:19pm] illunatic: jokeefe [10:19pm] jokeefe: thanks! [10:19pm] You set a limit on the number of room members to 25. [10:20pm] illunatic: is ChanServ not an op bot? [10:20pm] You set a limit on the number of room members to 25. [10:20pm] jokeefe: thought it was [10:20pm] illunatic: so how are things going as of late? making use of the brief publicity that Iceland's recent win received? [10:22pm] jokeefe: so focused on things here [10:22pm] Bluestreak: Sorta. [10:22pm] jokeefe: thanks, Kendra [10:23pm] Bluestreak: I talk the Iceland wins up a lot in conversation! [10:23pm] jokeefe: ++ [10:24pm] Bluestreak: Things are happening this year illunatic [10:24pm] Kendra: I just talked to Socialist Alternative and they got 2500 signatures to put Seamus whelan on the ballot for City Council. They seem interested in how third parties are approaching running candidates. Are we talking about running candidates in any local elections? [10:25pm] Bluestreak: Not local, no. [10:25pm] jokeefe: looking to 2014. [10:25pm] Kendra: Might be conversation starter or discussion topic once we get through this round of events. [10:26pm] jokeefe: yes [10:26pm] jokeefe: we need a training session [10:27pm] Bluestreak: September? [10:27pm] Bluestreak: Too soon? [10:28pm] Kendra: From talking to them it's just standing around with a clip board, but it gets people talking. Also they were surprised at how they exceeded their goals in time and the number of signatures. I don't ecpect we would be prepared for the November elections here, but we should pay attention to how it's done. [10:28pm] jokeefe: july/august - hot and slow is a good time to start [10:29pm] jokeefe: how to to run videos are on my todo list [10:29pm] jokeefe: have some slides/video of my talk from the last conference [10:30pm] jokeefe: suggest we get the monthly meetings going, then start on candidate recruitment [10:30pm] jokeefe: Feb. 2014 is when nomination papers are available for state rep. elections. [10:30pm] jokeefe: town elections are the first half of every year. [10:31pm] jokeefe: so starting in july/august allows is to get a jump on those elections as well. elected town meeting is probably the easiest election to run in. [10:32pm] jokeefe: LP candidate recruitment guide - https://www.lp.org/files/crm.pdf [10:32pm] srevilak: Hey all, I'm going to have to clock out for the evening [10:32pm] Kendra: nite steve [10:32pm] jokeefe: understood, night [10:33pm] Shidash left the chat room. (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [10:33pm] srevilak left the chat room. (Quit: leaving) [10:33pm] Kendra: Have we gotten through most of the agenda? [10:34pm] jokeefe: yes [10:35pm] jokeefe: motion to adjourn? [10:35pm] Bluestreak: 2nd [10:35pm] Kendra: yeah, i have to get up pretty early. I say let's adjourn. [10:36pm] Bluestreak: Great meeting.
