Even though I wont reply to most technical questions I could understand what you guys are talking, sometimes I do post questions I face & I am happy with most answers. I wont miss any mail that comes to me, they are so interesting. I learn a lot from this. Continue the same and I will be glad to participate.

The Las Vegas LUG is usually just a social get together. Our last meeting we actually had someone present. Michael Bernstien presented ZOPE to us, since he was one of the programmers for it. So, It is nice to have some authority and a speaker is good sometimes/occasionally. Maybe you guys should have an Installfest or something like that. Try to draw people back into the group. Doesn't have to be always formal, but offer some formal events and then do your geek things with each other after/before. -- Jennifer Dozar http://seul.org/~jennifer/osschools/ ******************************************* ALL YOUR BASEPAIR ARE BELONG TO US!
