		Minutes for May 5, 2005
		-----------------------

5:11 - A remark prompts the secretary to begin taking minutes.
	Any events before this point cannot be proven to have occured.
5:11 - The pizza is ordered.  
5:12 - What's-his-face makes skirt-related remark, thus dooming the Earth
	to a plague of locusts.  Or something in that vein.
5:?? - Secretary gives up on assigning times to events.
Steve has yet to arrive, and so the election must be delayed.
No one seems to want to be the Ice Queen.
Finally, Greg volunteers to be Ice Queen.
What's-his-face makes another skirt-related remark.  Not at me, but I suspect that
there will be locusts anyway.  Or those ugly brown cave-crickets.  Those suck too.
The issue of Phil's Star Wars expedition is brought up.  It is decided that it will
proceed.
More innane banter regarding Star Wars fills the room.
The conversations begin to diverge from this topic.  A coherent summary of any of
them is likely to be mathematically impossible.

The pizza has arrived.  I suspect that the resultant feeding frenzy will leave few
survivors.

That was tasty.  Anyhow, Steve has presently arrived, and so our electoral system
may proceed.

	-* Decision 2005 *-
The cammpaign between Bernie and Steve continues to heat up.  Steve makes a strong
case as the incumbent and owner of a car.
Bernie, former treasurer of the SPS, makes remarks about Movie Night and money.

I'm voted secretary, defeating my nonexistant opponent. 

It seems that Fish is the new Donut Czar.  

Adam says to me, "Don't write down anything I say."  I proceed to do so anyway.

The final tally for Vice President of the SPS
Steve:			 4
Bernie:			>4
The Suggestion Box: 	 1

	<-** Bernie Wins!!!!! **->
In a landslide electoral victory, Bernie has won the position of Vice President of
the SPS, defeating incumbent Steve by some unknown margin, as the exact count of
Bernie's votes was lost before it could be recorded.
Third-party candidate The Suggestion Box managed to capture a single vote in this
election, due to the note requesting that the suggestion box be checked more
regularly.
Bernie celebrates his victory with a traditional SPS physics demo.
Liquid nitrogen freezes a wire, decreasing resistance and increasing the brightness
of a lightbulb connected to it.  A solenoid demo does various things to metal rods,
shooting them accross the room.

Vice President-elect Bernie calls for volunteers to blow up a water bottle.  
A group of students follows him.  Long story short: BAM!!!

The meeting concludes with this.
