Just stirring the pot again...

Where are we by the PNLTC FAQ?
http://www.pnltc.org/Articles/Article_ShowPrimer.html

Is this where we should be? Timetable?

Yet to be deteremined will GATS conflict will Brickfest?


Recap:
+Mike Walsh, chief organizer
+Frank Filz (if no conflict w/ Brickfest 2001?)
+James Beerman
+Sheree Rosenkrantz
?visiting and lending stock, James Trobaugh from GA

Others? please chime in ............


All the LTCs and LUGs that have shown at GATS have been really outstanding.
[uh...We will be too? ]
I want to do this, but I am starting  to get some butterflies...
