Red lights
- Could get red bags at Radio Shack? Or do they have to obey the Oregon plastic ban?

- Bike taillights could use a cone of paper to help avoid looking directly at the LEDs
Book
- Brandon feels good about the "why" parts
- We still need to fill in gaps and add some missing concepts
- Possibly have a list of "things to add later"?
Next Meetup
Keep the videos a bit mysterious so they don't watch them in advance?
Topical communities
- Brandon: emailed Ben B and Ted and Will, heard back from Ted, tweeted something, added a Facebook post
- Shelley: might need to take on an additional community
- Ben: found out that this West Coast group is committed to plain language while the Indiana group uses some mystical language (they refer to Andor Projex, Jade Dragon)
Services
Next step is to have a dinner or snack meeting with the Hartleys and Vliets
- Also invite Jerry
- Ben could Skype in
Evaluation
- Shelley: unusually productive, going from topic to topic
- Brandon: feeling really good about what we've been up to the last couple of months
- Ben: I'm feeling like it is good that I have this routine, it let's me have something to do with other people every week that is not just frustrating computer stuff
