>first Annual General Meeting, Members of the First Committee will present
>their findings and table proposals for achieving the Society's ultimate
>goal of constructing 'a craft that will transport us into death in such a
>way that we may, if not live, then at least persist'. The Committee will
>table Motions, then pass Interim Resolutions. The AGM will be open to the
>public, and interventions from the floor will be taken during the debates.
>
>'Let us deliver ourselves over utterly to death, not in morbid resignation
>but rigorously, creatively, eyes and mouths wide open so that they may be
>filled from the deep wells of the Unknown!' [First Manifesto of
>Necronautism, 1999]
