Hello,

I am pinging again to make sure it would be fine if I bring assorted
WasabiNet apparatus to Bworks tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon for a demo.  I'm
assuming that with the Saturday classes running from 12p-4p, I would do best
to come by during the latter half of this period to get any staging needs
sorted out so that a demo could go smoothly around 4ish.  Also, I'd to be
happy to help out where I can with BWorks Saturday programming.

Hope to you see you tomorrow afternoon.
