Re: [BLUG] Get together tonight

I wish I could make it, but alas, it conflicts with a knitting class
I'm taking with my wife.

I hope everyone has fun!

Cheers,
Steven Black

Re: [BLUG] Anyone here use Blender?

Cool. Would you be interested in just getting together sometime to
talk about Blender? Anyone else interested in this?

If you don't know, Blender is a high quality open source 3D modeling,
rendering and animation tool. It can also be used for things like video
and audio editing.
