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...
