I'll be there.  Things have been crazy and I don't know if I will have a chance
to "Score" my new Mech and Flyer but if I don't I will bring them for show
anyway and just use the same team I did last time.

I am ready for a little destruction.

Ok. I started to type up directions to the event on Saturday, but then I thought, why re-invent the wheel? So I went poking about on the Brandeis Webpage, and I found: (URL) even mentions the Commuter Rail, but for some reason neglects to mention (...) (26 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
