No, No, No!

Eric raised his hand (meaning he had a projector) and I got a couple of people
who answered back just to me that they were interested.

I will go ahead and do thisbut we need to know if we have the second floor
room, or if we have to project on the back of the restaurant booth we sit in.

 So... it's upstairs of Martha's Exchange?  Can you get dinner up

And to think I was going to ask what you meant exactly when you called 
me Gunga Din... I wish that I had, this would have been clarified 
earlier.  (Though twenty minutes spent online reading the poem and the 
synopsis of the movie weren't wasted, since now I know what a Gunga 
Din is.)

I carry neither projector nor water.  :(

Erik,

I did not mean to scare you off.I realized later it was someone else who
siad they might be able to get the projector.

I am going to do the talk even without the projectorit is no biggie, just
nicer to have something to look at besides my face.

And Rob, this talk never made it out to announceit just was on the
Disgust list.  Maybe that is why we have such a low response?

I have to leave for a meeting.  After we are sure we have a room, would Rob
or Paul want to make an official announcement?

I'll be calling this afternoon to check on the room.  Chris is the 
only one authorized to manage that room at Martha's and he doesn't 
get in until after 14:00ish.  I'll let you know once I know :)

To my knowledge, there is no MELBA meeting this week.  However, if 
you'd all like to meet at Martha's feel free to congregate :)

I goofed and scheduled last weeks meeting for the wrong week, which 
seemed to work out well since we didn't have anyone to give a talk :)

If people want to get together this week and use the room upstairs, 
let me know and I'll call Martha's and make sure it's available.

Does anyone have any talk prepared that they'd like to present?

Also, since school's coming back into session, perhaps we should
plan a meeting at DWC and/or Rivier so that we can convert a few
college students away from the Dark Side.

Our Quarterly meeting is planned for 25 Sept. I'm just waiting to hear back

We have Shawn Shea from Expert Systems giving a talk on VMWare and ESX.

I could give my talk about the new things in the V2.5 kernel and what they
mean to systems admins and programmers, if anyone would be interested.  I should
warn you that to do it in an hour I have to talk very fast and leave it at
the 10,000 foot level.

I would need an LCD projector.

(High-level is fine for me.)

I haven't attended a MELBA meeting yet; is that the case, that they are 
limited to one hour?  I only ask b/c I may be meeting my old lady after 
the meeting and that gives me a definite time to give her...

Re: MELBA wed

2002-08-27 Thread Jon Hall

My talk would last at least an hour. I tried to give it recently and I spoke
very rapidly and finished in about 54 minutes, but had to skip rapidly over the
last 5 slides (out of about 30 slides).  90 minutes would be better for
presentation and (of course from this group) lots of discussion would make it
go out to two hours.  Arguments could take it to 150 minutes.  Drunken
arguments takes it to three solid hours, but you could leave after the 150
minute mark. :-)

We normally start about 1900, have a little old news, new news, introductions
and Heckling of Ben (a regular feature of our meetings), which is over
about 1915 hours, so we normally get started with the talks then, and we should
be over about 2200.  If we get done early we migrate downstairs for libations.

I can not stay out too late, since I have an early morning appointment.
