Brief description:
Po, a.k.a BSKing, BS too much in the emails. His messages offer no value. Members suggested to him several times to stop or cut BSing. However, he cannot get the message. Another way to enforce it is by removing him from the list completely.

  • Option 1: BSKing should be removed.
  • Option 2: It is OK for BSKing to stay.

    Started on January 26, 2003 and ended on March 21, 2003, the day David removed four wisdom teeth.

    Brief description:
    David has cavities on all of his wisdom teeth. His dentist, Dr. Kao, provided him with options to repair them with porcelain or remove the wisdom teeth. Repairing the teeth with porcelain will cost $4,000CDN total without insurance coverage; and each tooth will have to be repaired again in ten years. (Porcelain lasts about ten years.) However, there is also a risk that cavity will get worst on the wisdom teeth that eventually, David has to remove them.

  • Option 1: Remove them without second thought.
  • Option 2: Since David may have to remove them in 10 or 20 years, it is better off to remove them now while the recovery period is shorter.
  • Option 3: Regardless what happen, repair them with porcelain.

    Brief description:
    In support of Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics bid, a Vancouver Winter Carnival will be hosted on Sunday, March 2, 2003 between noon to 5PM at downtown. We, as a group of people, have a number of solutions to this carnival on Sunday. Ranking from inactive to reactive, semi-passive, passive, proactive.

  • Option I:
  • Inactive
    Pretend there is no such carnival in Vancouver and never talk about it again.
  • Option II:
  • Reactive
    Totally forget there is a carnival on Sunday but someone will watch the news on Sunday night and begin to talk about it on Monday's emails and discuss what we had missed during the weekend.
  • Option III:
  • Semi-Passive
    That's meet at Po Sheng's house on Sunday afternoon and watch the event unfold at CTV.
  • Option IV:
  • Passive
    We will send someone to attend the carnival. The person will use a DV8 and digital cam to record everything. We will watch the recording Sunday night at Po Sheng's house
  • Option V:
  • Proactive
    That's meet at Metrotown Skytrain station around 11:15AM on Sunday. Go to downtown by skytrain and have fun.
