I am from Ohio.  Ohio is in the Midwest and is part of GMLUG.  Oregon is
definately not in the Midwest.  I am not sure, but I would suspect that
DixieLUG is in the South.  Oregon is not in the South, either.

Have fun on your trip!

I'm wondering because I know I'll be in Oregon sometime next year, and I • have
no idea what group I should ask about, if I wanna meet some AFOLs... :-)


Oregon is generally considered to be "west", rather than "midwest".
(_Scary_, a Canadian giving a US Geography lesson...watch out for • Misteaks!)

Midwest-usually considered to be the plain states, as far west as N&S • Dakota,
as far east as Illinois (Basically, between the Missisippi River and the
Rockies).
West- Rockies and Coast. CA, OR, WA

Canadian Geography

East (NB, NS, PEI, NF&Lab)  Mid (Ontario and PQ), West (Man, Sask. • AB),(own
little world) BC.  North (depends, I consider North of French River (ON) • to be
'North'.
Yukon, NWT, NAT(?)  (Formerly east NWT...don't know anyone there, so don't • know
abreviation)


If you are going to OR, the people you want to talk to are PNLTC
(http://www.PNLTC.org)

Depending on when you are going, I may be back in BC (Victoria). There are
groups in both Vancouver and Victoria BC as well.  I don't know where you • are
going in OR, but I am fairly sure something can be arranged if you are • going to
be anywhere near the Portland area.
