Edit of Ray's List
Here’s the count:

3 SA’s = 4.5 12A’s (Cory, Donnie, Andy)
10 FB’s = 10 12A’s (Gene, Juno, Ray, Mike, Dean, Greg, Geraldo,Crit, Alex, Billy- FE with a special 12A pass)
1 PrePro = 0.75 12A’s (Kristy)
5 FC’s = 2.5 12A’s (Collin, Colin, John, Peter, Ryan)
1 FD = 0.33 12A’s (Jeremy)
1 FE = 0.125 12A’s (Holly)

That’s a Grand Total of 18.205 12A equivalents, not a record but a very impressive and colorful turnout. The calculus here is also very impressive, but I can’t take credit. Holly, Kristy and Crit did the math.


Also, 0 points for boingers of Brett, Andrew & Alisha

I certainly agree with the 0 points for Brett, Andrew & Alisha, those guys need to get their lives together. Get a rotary back into the formula.

I'm learning on the FC stuff, I think I can get it. Turbos, electronic fuel injection, right?

Chris, where you been?

Peter if your FC isn't black that one in the photo must belong to Ryan (sorry for the error Ryan). And as I recall your FC is actually red, but there was only one red FC in the pictures (Kristy's PrePro). Did you show up in your FC last night, so that there were actually 6 FC's?

Also Alex and Crit, sorry for missing your names in the 12A accounting and thanks to Holly for setting it straight! (hey, it was 12:00 at night, after an hour of loading photos and a video and a couple beers here at the house)

I put a post in the 1st gen section for our Virtual Members, here it is if you want to contribute or read their comments:

Someone refresh my memory real quick. To engage the clutch on the ac compressor, you put 12v to the little screw on the top of the compressor, right?

A goat would be the all-time, kick ***-est thing in the world to bring to a rotary meet.

Definitely a good meet. In Ray's video, I look retarted. I thought he was taking my picture for the first few seconds, and I was like 'when the hell's he gonna take it?'... Haha.

After the meet, Collin and I stopped and got this cool bumper sticker for the Maxipad.



lol

I know you were there Peter but was your car? I don't see it in any of the pictures. Did you come in a boinger?

Congratulations on unloading the Maxi-Pad Collin! One down, one to go.

Ray, Pete's car was there. You can barely see it in the pic with Geraldo holding his tire. Collin went somewhere from your earlier pics and then Pete parked where Collin's car was (right beside Kristy). Collin returned and parked in the space that is behind Geraldo in that pic.

The list that was given to you with all the names and 12A count was done in the parking lot. Every car was present at that time.

See why I don't usually drink the beer? I have to keep it all straight.

Thanks for the pics Alex and Ray. Ray that was a great idea in the other thread to have virtual OGTA meetings from around the world.

Good eye Holly, the record stands amended. Those FC's sure do get lost in the crowd. If anybody has a better photo of Peter's red FC from Tuesday's meeting please post it up.

Is the BITS (7-31-10) going to replace the August OGTA (8-3-10)?

Yeah I think international OGTA's would be a great idea, especially if there are kick backs to the Suwanee branch.

I hear Iran has one of the largest stashes of mint 1st gens on the planet and there's no telling what they've got down in Cuba.

Tim and other Southern Georgians could start a branch, maybe meet in the parking lot at the Soft Ball fields.

Even Ohio might have enough FB's for an OGTA Chapter, they could be the OOGTA's. My Cop Buddy Dave up there can arrange a 10% food and drink discount for the first meeting.

Sorry to hear about the car Alex, I hope it's not too serious.

Do you have two of those rear panels? Can I have them????

I wasn't wanting it to take place of that Tuesday meet, if I ever made it sound like that. There's nothing wrong with a rotary weekend followed by the monthly business meeting

And you mentioned Iran having that stash, Ray- I was watching the movie 'Men who stare at goats' and when the guys are pulling up to the gas station somewhere in Iraq, they cut in line and bumped an RX3 out of the way to get to the gas pump. I noticed the 'X' wheels first, then the car

Yeah, Ray. Isn't this the first rule for making the meetings work, same bat place, same bat day, same bat time.

Apologies to the YGTBs. You guys might not remember when Bat Man used to be a TV show and signed off with the "same bat channel, same bat time" phrase.

Mike, those YGTB's are clueless. They probably don't even know the Batmobile is powered by a 12A.

You are probably right about the meeting times Brett, I was thinking about the June meeting that occurred right after Crit and Dena's Lakehouse. Exhausted by the magnificent turnout at Crit's, only 2 12A's showed up and they were nearly overrun by FC's.

Maybe this time the bounce will go the other way.

Thanks, Mike. Someone besides Kristy and myself need to keep reminding Ray that you can have as many meeting as you want in a month, but the 1st Tuesday of the Month is always the same time & location. 12As vs. 13Bs may vary.
