These minutes were transcribed by Matt Strait in 2021. I did it manually; no OCR. Typos, if any, are marked with [sic] when noticed, and anything else in square brackets is also my note. Otherwise, since the original is fixed-width, this rendition duplicates the original formatting very closely. ================================================================================ Minimal Minn-STF Minutes Meeting of 4 January 1975, held at the Bucklins' home. Called to approximate order at 5:04 by President Blue Petal. The meeting of 1 February 1975 will not be held at Cynthia Franzen's as previous announced; it will be held instead at 1767 Blair in St. Paul. (Telephone 646-4398 [handwritten: ": Gayle Olson + Cynthia Franzen's.)"] Lien mentioned that Blue Petal's term expired at midnight, with Jim Young assuming the Presidency at one second thereafter. The question was raised as to who would serve as President for the intervening second. The general consensus was that Blue and Jim could arm wrestle for it. Both declined. Someone retrospectively noted that the Secretary should be taking minutes. Secretary indicated disinterest in doing so. Vote called for and taken. Motion that Secretary was goofing off passed with one dissent. Question of moral turpitude brought up. Linda Lounsbury asked what should be done with the Minn-STF Tapes. Consensus favored erasing, shredding, and stonewalling. Dave Wixon moved to adjourn; Dick Tatge seconded; passed unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 5:08, and not a moment too soon. Submitted/typed 16 Jan by [signed:] Denny Lien Dennis Lien, Minn-STF Secretary ================================================================================
