Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to repost the following message to Lugnet.General.
I tried this once using e-mail, I waited an hour, but it didn't show up, so
I'm going to try it again with the web interface. Sorry if it shows up
again later.
The meeting was great!
Thanks to everyone that attended. It was great seeing some new faces, and
some old ones from our last meeting. Hope everyone will be able to make it
to our next meeting, when/where is still to be determined.
Thanks to Cletus for getting the meeting area in his church. We had plenty
of room, and plenty of room for more people, if anyone else in the
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York area wanted to join us when we meet there
again. <hint, hint> :-)
Thanks also to Eric Olson for taking pictures and getting them up for us all
to see. :-)
-Andy Lynch
