There's GOTTA be some interest in starting up a NYCLUG.  Let me know if you're
interested.  (Oh yes, we'd pronounce it NYE-Klug.  What the heck, right?)


Such a group already exists and it's called GardenSLUG, covering NJ, NY, and
PA. Another group, NELUG, has Boston covered and another, WAMALUG takes care of
Baltimore.  See http://news.lugnet.com/org/us/ for more about these groups.

GardenSLUG got started back in July.  We've got our own group in LUGNET,
lugnet.org.us.gardenslug, and are currently working on arranging our next
meeting.  Check out the GardenSLUG newsgroup to find out more about us and how
to joining our mailing list.

Regards,
Matt
