(...) A little trade fodder is the only thing I could think of. It's not a major part of the gathering though. There's only about a dozen pieces swapped per meeting. :-) I'm more interested in seeing your MOCs. -Duane (21 years ago, 26-Jan-04, to lugnet.loc.us.co, FTX)

The discussion of a Chicago based LUG has never really come up. I think one of the reasons has been because NILTC took the role of a Chicago Lug and also because MichLUG does a lot with our area too.
