Agenda for Tuesday Sept 8th

1. We need to design some posters and fliers to go up around school.

2. We might be able to set up a display in a display case of one of each of our categories:
A--stuff we fix and give back
B--electronica obscuria (strange old stuff we find)
C--complete dissections (show ALL the parts in a device)
D--something we made from all the parts of something else

I want you all to be able to do these, but for now we'll have a few that I've done in my garage for examples. We should also blog for each one, as those are four of our main blog categories. Here's what I have for each category:

A: fixed a meditation water sculpture that the Boulder Humane Society had tested and found to not work correctly. Just had to open up the water pump and find the cat hair all wrapped around the main drive shaft in there.
B: I can pull out about 7 or 8 examples of those automatic timers to turn lights on and off, ranging from the early 70s to now.
C: ? Not sure. Why don't we do this on Tuesday and we'll document it for the blog and keep the parts for the display case. Maybe a telephone would be good.
D: My mood lamp! :-) Hopefully it can be powered in the display case, with a dark background....

3. Mrs. Baker's 8th period class would like to have a few students come down and talk about the Old Green Machines club, and what we do. I'm not sure who would do this, but you could take stuff with you and give a demo. This will have to be a bit later, though.

4. We need to get some large bins and make a stencil or something so we can spraypaint our logo on them and put something like "when this is filled, call us at 720-494-XXXX and we'll come pick it up!" Then, we need a few volunteers to go deliver these to some more thrift stores, and to the ones that already give us stuff.

5. There IS NO NUMBER FIVE.
