Actually I'm in North Carolina right now. Gathering my stuff together and packing my car. I don't actually "move" until the 17th.

(...) Hey! I just noticed this post. I know you're planning on coming to the meeting on Wednesday. I just thought I'd mention that as a kid (ie, ages 3-8) I lived in Newport.
