What can Phoenix do at its meetings that is more interesting than watching the latest episode of "Stargate" freshly downloaded off the internet?

If Phoenix ceases to exist, where are the people to run the conventions that facillate the wabby bit stuff going to come from?

If the club nights didn't clash with another social engagement I'm strongly tempted to come along to the next meeting if only to spread gloom and doom face to face. (But they do, so I will be doing face to face with a different social group entirely).
