The Evolution of Comic Book Scams Graeme Kennedy	(no pic)
TAM6 Report Fred Bremmer Fred presented an overview of TAM6: the guest speakers and their presentations, some stories about the social activities, and brought some nifty gifties.
Ogopogo: Myth, Legend... Profit Center Kennedy Goodkey Kennedy has been involved in the production of a unique film story based on Moby Dick, but with Ogopogo instead of a whale. He brought us some anecdotes about his experience walking a fine line between tacit acceptance and open skepticism while working with the local community.
The (Mis)Use of Crystals for Woo Carrie Chapman Carrie brought an awesome collection of quartz stones and a genuine crystal ball for the audience to experience first-hand. Her woo alter ego explained how crystals can be used in the real... and imaginary worlds.
Summary The Good: Interesting topics No major technical glitches. Fred brought excellent handout goodies. The Bad: Lower attendance than expected. The Ugly: Nothing to speak of. Verdict: Success.
