How about early fall? We 'll need to decide what we want to cover/do at the next meeting. Unfortunately I missed the first one so I don't know what you folks agreed on (other than our cool name of Gardenslug). Jeff "Christopher Weeks" (...) (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.gardenslug)

Hey Erik, I'm not real fond of going into The City, but if the directions are good, and I can use mass transit, then that improves the odds of my attending. :-) On the other hand, I don't know what kind of MOCs I'd be bringing on mass transit, (...)
