Re: [BLUG] Presentation idea [Was: Where is everybody?]

This reminds me too much of my niece describing what she thought the
group may be like... a bunch of geeky folks sitting around a circle
clutching their laptops. Which is to say, more like a support group for
people addicted to their computers (which happen to run Linux) than a
social group for people who like Linux.

My interest in the BLUG is primarily social. Sitting around at home
watching something recording previously doesn't sound that social.

Cheers,
Steven Black
