I certainly do.

Well, that's where the legal-words thing comes in. Maybe that category is
actually broad enough to include us -- or could be, simply with the
addition of a new mission statement. But maybe it has to be more focused

LUGNET can't become a 501(c)3 organization because it doesn't provide its
services to anyone, regardless of age.

The closest LUGNET could get would be a 501(c)7 "Social and Recreational"
organization.
