I guess the next step is to pick a date to get together. Personally the only weekends that I could make it are July 29-30, August 19-20, or later. Most weekday evenings other than from July 13-25 are also good for me. If someone is familier with one (...) (26 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.nj, lugnet.loc.us.ny, lugnet.loc.us.pa)
