I had wanted to go to this, but after working past midnight on Wednesday for
a client, I was beat and couldn't get up the energy to run out to the
meeting right after getting home at 6:45...not that I remembered it was
Thursday yesterday until 7:15 anyways. One of these days I will actually
make it out to another meeting.

Thanks again to O'Reilly for providing some complimentary copies of the book
that Greg worked on, MAKE magazines and a t-shirt. 

It was a nice turnout..but there wasn't any arm (or mud) wrestling.
Maybe next time. :-)

See you all next month,

Robby
