The first meeting after Worldcon? -- because I just went to whichever location I hadn't been to the last time. I've since gotten better about it, both on my own and with help, but some confusion is to be expected. What I am somewhat upset about is missing the election on Friday. In some ways this is my own fault, as I should have made a note of it on my calender. On the other, I don't know if it was on the upcoming events ca lander but know that the fact that we were holding elections wasn't on the "What's New" section of the web page and that it wasn't mentioned here until the night before. It would have been nice to have had a reminder somewhat earlier, perhaps from the trustees, and to learn the results at some point. I doubt that the officers have changed that much but I'd like to know. Elspeth
