Well, since Schrodenger's cat is out of the bag, I guess I can tell you to pass this on to Micki: there's a nice looking 10 foot mesh dish on Page 12 of the current (Summer 2001) Skyvision catalog, for just $499.95 (plus, unfortunately, $95 shipping). They don't list dishes on their website, but the phone number is 1(800)500-9275. Happy birthday, RJ! Paul -------------------------------- H.

The first SETI League Technical Symposium drew a small but enthusiastic participation (thirty attendees). The quality of technical presentations exceeded our expectations. (See for yourself by ordering a copy of the Proceedings via ). Social opportunities were abundant, ranging from the Friday night hospitality suite to Saturday night's Awards Banquet, and including refreshment breaks in the Demo Room all day Saturday, breakfast discussions in the hotel every morning, and an informal luncheon for participants after Sunday's membership and board meetings. If you didn't already meet our 2001 Bruno Award winner, see the press release now posted at . Because of the large number of papers submitted this year, and generally inadequate time for presentations, next year's Symposium is being expanded to two full days, beginning at noon on Friday, 26 April 2002, and running through noon on Sunday the 28th. Thanks to the kind assistance of member Prof. Allen Katz, we will once again be using the fine facilities of the College of New Jersey. For SETICon02, we are beginning our preparations much earlier. A Call for Papers will be issued next month, with abstracts due in the Autumn, to allow all submitted papers to be peer reviewed. As we are hoping for a greatly expanded Proceedings, I ask you all to start thinking about what SETI experiences you may wish to document and share. My thanks to the eleven speakers and various other participants who have made our first Symposium a great success. Next year will be even better. Highlights of the Membership Meeting and Board of Trustees Meeting follow (with full minutes to be posted to the website next week): Financial report: we finished 2000 about $23,000 ahead of budget, and are thus solvent for at least the next year. Committee reports were delivered; progress noted in all areas. Old busines: reports on progress with eCommerce, the AAS Grant, membership, 5-year plan, and email lists. New business: reports on nonprofit mailing permit, IAA SETI Committee participation, summer intenr's work, plans for SETICon02, and executive direcor's annual report. Good and Welfare: special presentation to our host, Dr. Allen Katz. Board of Trustees Action: Re-elected existing officers. Adopted minor bylaws revisions. Extended executive director's contract for one additional year. At his request, added Bylaws Compliance to executive director's duties. See you all next year! Paul -------------------------------- H.
