I totally agree. It's a little disappointing to me that most of the offers
I've had to meet up with others in GMLUG have been a little too far away for
me to currently attend. I would love to get to a meeting of AFOLs, but
unfortunately, I can't run one at my house since we are still working hard
at fixing the place up and it looks like a mess. We are refurbishing a 100
year old home. so I guess until a group meets near me or my house is done...
but yeah, I agree that we should think about reorganizing or *something*.
cheers!
