	  Unmasking
 
	- Weather (hot in midwest and east, colder than expected
	  in the west)
 
	- Boosters and waiting for the newer Moderna variant,
	  getting shots at drugstores versus doctors versus state-run

	- motsscons past (and maybe future — a minicon in
	  Philadelphia once things are sane again)

        - Job hunting, medical leave, and mental health

	  for each other over time (net.motss was founded in
	  1983)
 
        - Volunteering
 
        - People we miss who aren't on today's call
 
        - Health and retirement, downsizing
