  Science Fiction Fans!

	 How many people out there belong to Science Fiction Clubs?  I belong
    to a SF club, called "Dark Star", that is interested in contacting other
    clubs.  We are based at UCSD.  We attempted about a year or so ago to
    start a round-robin between the various SF clubs in the UC system.  
    Unfortunatly, this did not get off with a bang but a wimper!

	 We are interested in what activities you do as a club.  Like fund
    raising, club libraries, book discussions, star gazing trips, movie
    trips, .....
	 
	 Do you all have the problem of nasty male-female ratios? ( ie: lots
    more males then females.  Any suggestions for remidies to the above 
    situation?

	 We developed political power mongering problems whenever we had
    any sizable amount of money to do things with.  Our solution was to 
    stop having any money laying around.  Any other solutions, or money
    problems( other then not having any!)?

	 We also have encountered an interesting phonemenon.  Most of the
    techn. oriented members are comp-sci majors.  Not really too suprising....


	 Well, I guess I'll leave it at that for now,
