Hey everybody... Just curious as to if there will be any formal get-together while at Kidvention. I understand that people will be spaced out over a few days.

Hello all, It seems that although everyone is considering lowering the age down to 16 or so that they are forgetting us true "kids" 13 and under. Even though transportation is an issue for local groups Im sure that we could get rides to at least (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us)

I think to force us to change the rule for NELUG and force adults to start another group is unfair to (...) (26 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Particularly teenagers as bright and sociable as Shiri seems to be. I (...) (26 years ago, 7-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us, lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Shiri- Sorry I cannot help you much, as I do not have much of a voice in this discussion. However, take a look at our website under membership: (URL) have a similar clause - It's nothing against those who are under 18, it's just a standard (...)
