Reviews: Station 11, Premise is a post-apocalyptic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Station_Eleven_(miniseries) began A non-linear story about a pandemic flu that almost killed everyone. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Station_Eleven Based on the novel of the same name by Canadian writer Emily St. John Mandel. On Amazon Prime. Highly recommended; reviewed by Yochanan Urias Dune II Great cinematography. Good acting. Good fight scenes. See it in IMAX if you can. Highly recommended. Hans Zimmer scored it. Reviewed by John O ST-SF: Trek to San Francisco March 8-10, 2024 Hyatt Regency SFO Hotel https://www.creationent.com/cal/st_sf/index.html The schedule was released that week. There were complaints of it being disorganized, TV stars speaking was nearly the only programming--just one track. But sales were awesome (Attendees were generally the older literate crowd of Trek regulars from all over); a good con for Valerie and Candy at the Silicon Authors' table. Reviewed by Valerie Rumor: Is Daylight savings time a form of Time Travel? Adjourned: 9:03 pm PS: The Vice President would like to to thank Candy Lowe for taking the minutes for this meeting, as he had opened the meeting from his cel phone while out on his evening walk…
