Oh, we're all adults, and I think that having a backup might not be a bad
idea. Carbon paper might accomplish the same thing. (Can you still *buy*
carbon paper?) The secretary could take notes on carbon paper and give a
copy to someone else at the end of the meeting. THen if the notes get lost,
a copy still exists somewhere.

Uhhh...I've taken minutes on a laptop. Makes it *very* easy once you
do it once, since the items are mostly the same. Then you just make a
copy of the disk (why am I explaining this?... 8^}).

(assuming you *had* a laptop to take notes on. I don't.)

My notebook has been at almost every board meeting in the last year. Whoever
is taking notes is welcome to borrow it.

I admit that I'm guilty. I have the notes in a stack of papers around here.
I'm very sorry I haven't been very good about this lately. As I said in the
last board meeting, I'll agree to accept the post of secretary again *ONLY*
if I can share the post with someone else. I know; it's supposed to be one
person and it may need to be unofficial. I can take notes just fine, and
would be willing to accept the "undersecretary/scribe role, but I've just had
too chaotic a life lately to be prompt about posting the minutes. (If you
think it aggravates you, you might be happy to know that it haunts me.)
*sigh*
Unfortunately the post of secretary isn't very popular and whoever doesn't
object ends up elected. If it's because of the notetaking part, then my idea
might encourage someone else to take the official secretary position. If it's
the posting part ... well, the laptop would help, i guess.
Again, I humbly apologize. I know I've lety everyone down.

Sorry about the pressure you're under, Misti, but the October minutes
December minutes still need to be posted. Is it your intention to get
these online sometime soon or should you get together with someone, go
over the notes, and let someone else (who was at the meetings) do the
polishing and posting?

Actually, it's the December minutes that I have -- I misunderstood which
minutes were under discussion.
I am getting those in tonight. I have no idea what happened to the October
minutes. *sigh* If and when I find them, I'll enter them.

*pats mta on back* It's OK; we'll still love you, even if you lost the Oct
minutes. Don't let it happen again, though. :-))

I'd be willing to consider the secretary job, but I'd rather take my own
notes. I've had the experience of trying to enter notes written by someone
else, and it didn't work very well. When I take notes that I plan to expand
into minutes later, I leave out a lot that I know I can fill in. Unless you
take excellent notes, they don't work for anyone else.

Having been Grex secretary in the past, I can attest that
what Jan's saying is correct.

I'd be willing to be the secretary, but I would probably be pretty bad at it.
I don't take notes that can be expanded back into the conversation. I'd
probably be very slow about posting them, too.
