You know when I suggested this I misread the email group and thought it was PLUG rather than PDXLUG. PDXLUG which I have never attended is also a fine group but as someone pointed out it is much more informal (a conversation rather than a structured talk).
I don't know Tim, but have talked to him and find him personable and smart. If people are serious (PDXLUG or PLUG) we should think carefully and see what we might have that could attract him before constructing an invite. He talks about observing the trends of alpha geeks (meaning something like a generalissimo nerd I guess) and many of us are proudly that. If we could offer a real exchange of information, some alpha geekness that we could impart, he might be interested. -Ted -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Randal L.

If anyone needs me to forward the invite, I *do* have Tim's ear if I don't abuse it. -- Randal L.
