There's no box for keeping it the time it is now! Or for Mondays at 6 or 7!

It has come to my attention that a facebook poll has started about
online meeting dates and times.
Since we are not all on facebook, I thought I would repost this here
(below, scroll). Since I and others have to a degree planned our
annual schedules for BASFA on Monday evening, and have other things
going during the day and other evenings, virtual or otherwise, my vote
would be to continue meeting, virtually or otherwise, on Monday
evenings. Since one doesn't have to drive through commute traffic to
get to a virtual meeting, perhaps we could start as early as 6 or 7 pm?
Review: For an exercise in eerie anticipation, check out Sarah
Pinsker's novel, /A Song for a New Age. /It's a rare piece of straight
science fiction (no magic, no pseudo science) nominated for a Nebula
and Hugo award. It takes place in a near future US with gathering
restrictions very similar to the ones that have just fallen upon us
(she must have written this more than a couple years ago) and imagines
them not going away. She's following a female singer/performer "Luce
Cannon" who's trying to revive live band performances, etc. Good
writing, characters, with some interesting switches between first and
third person for her main characters which doesn't bother me, but
bothered some reviewers.
Rumor of the Meek: People are praying to effigies of the Donald
asking him not to hurt them by denying COVID-19 virus aid to states
who don't worship him.
--Best, Gerald
When should we have an online BASFA meeting?
