Great work, Valerie!

Now keep that up until 2016 and maybe we'll get somewhere!  :>)

Let me know if I can help with the transcript work.  I've done a lot of 
transcripts in my time.

> I know there's supposed to be a discussion tonight of the Jill Stein event, perhaps including what outreach did and didn't work.  I won't be able to make it to the meeting, but here's some info on the outreach I did -- grist for the mill.

> Phone & email outreach to registered Greens in zip codes 95014, 95050, 95051, 95053, 95054, 95117, 95128, 95129 and 95130 (all of Cupertino and Santa Clara, parts of western San Jose; phone calls were to area code 408 only):
>    Total actually got some kind of message: 252 ***
>    Total Greens I tried to reach via phone and/or email: 358
>    Total Greens in those zip codes overall: 611
> 
> There are many ways you can slice and dice my notes, and I don't want to overwhelm folks with detail, but here's some.
> 
> Methods I used to reach Greens:
>     A - Tried email only: 67 (3 bad email addresses)
>     B - Tried phone only: 285 (103 unreachable)
>         65 permanently unreachable (disconnected, wrong number, etc.)
>         37 temporarily unreachable (line busy, no answer, etc.)
>     C - Tried email & phone: 6
> 
> So, attempted = 358
> assumed reached (live or via a message) = 252 ***
> not reached = 106
> 
> Before I tried to reach anyone I went through my notes from previous outreach to some of these zip codes and flagged the email addresses and phone numbers that I already knew to be bad.  I did not try to reach those folks.  We should be aware that although the list we have is from May 30, it still contains some old bad info.  We can save ourselves some frustration by keeping good notes on bad data.

> On another note, I made an audio recording of the event and have been working on transcribing it.  I did a rough draft yesterday, and tomorrow I expect to finish cleaning it up.  I'll send it out when it's finished.  (I didn't want to promise this ahead of time because I didn't know how well my recorder would work.  It got most of what Jill said, but most of the questions were hard or impossible to decipher.  Fortunately, she repeated the essence of most of the questions before answering them.)
