REVIEWS:
Lisa reviewed the 3rd Mars helicopter flight videos as everything is going
quite fine & it's fun to watch it in operation & both Yochanan & Howeird
agree, with Craig finding it quite amazing & thought the color is cool &
Gerry volunteered to explain the science of it if you email him

Candace reviewed Penguicon as she really enjoyed it & found the conversion
tool to adjust to their time zone was extremely helpful

John O reviewed CostumeCon 39 - Things that go bump in the night - as
examples of things that go bump on the net and that there are hopes it will
be held in person next year.  He said there were interesting panels to
attend & that local costumers won the ICG award, plus he found that Sunday
of the con was truly silly & funny & he looks forward to 2023 when
CostumeCon can be held in our area again and it was very well organized.
There were several follow-on comments & Lisa had fun

& then John O reviewed 'Kong, Skull Island' as a different take of the
subject & worth seeing & that there were several 'Marvel'ous actors in the
film

Yochanan reviewed 'Midnight Sky' with George Clooney as not great, but not
bad, just uneven & that it was free to watch; then reviewed seeing the
Oscar animated nominated shorts as great to watch & that 3Below is set up
magnificently; & then reviewed the conclusion to 'Falcon & the Winter
Soldier' as it didn't have a real ending, but very much worth spending the
time to watch

Gerry reviewed the weekend's Space X launch as everything went very, very
well & there is a great picture of 11 people on the space station

we adjourned at 8:45 pm

and the rumor of the week = 'Star Trek visits Skull Island with an episode
called Khaaang'
