I agree, these are very umm, I dont want to be discouraging and a downer, but basically they really pissed me off, and makes me wonder what the hell makes this nation different from the stereotypical communist nation. ACK, makes me so mad, i mena the nerve of these poeple, oh well....what can I do to help?
It'd also be nice if some of the outlying groups (Cambridge, MA, Washington, D.C., London, Colorado, Austin) could link up with us at least briefly. (If we started at noon, California time, that would be fine for the East Coasters, but 8 or 9 p.m. for the Londoners....does the London group still meet?)
how do you propose us here onthe east coast hook up? I would think a virtual meeting would be nice, but dont know any of the logistics which such an operation. I personally can't travel, and a the best could uh, make a long distance telephone call with my neato boxes. Is there anyone in the Deleware area? Kinda near D.C. and cambridge, but traveling to either of those places would be difficult, as in near impossible, unless........
This is just an idea. Let's discuss it.
