 The Sep 8 event will need it for potluck (what is needed and who is
 bringing it), as well as RSVPs.

I made an event (took ~10 min):

   http://www.punchbowl.com/parties/4637200-gnhlug-summer-bbq

but it looks like 'multiple admins' is a premium feature, so I wonder if 
I shouldn't cancel this one and Bruce should create a new one.  I don't 
want to get in the way of managing potluck logistics, for instance.  I'm 
happy to just alter this one if that's preferable too (I didn't see a 
way to give ownership to another user).

  I got my first Linux distro from Jon maddog Hall and DEC when
Linus Torvalds came to speak to UNH.  :-D  Red Hat Linux 2.1.

  At the time, I was new to this you-nicks thing.  I wish I had been
smart enough to get it autographed...

 Sadly, I saw *zero* Linux showing at the last show I attended
 (which, I guess, brings me back to the previous topic...)

  That's market dynamics for you.  Everyone knows what MS-Windows is.
Not everyone knows what Linux is.  Thus, it seems like a better idea
to show MS-Windows.

  Of course, if you have more than one PC, showing both might attract
special interest from the Linux crowd.

If you want to take a drive on a Sunday morning, the MIT Flea has a lot 
of cool stuff both current and...uhm...aged?  A real Enigma machine 
usually makes an appearance, and pretty much everyone there has Linux of 
some form available.

Next one is this Sunday (I'll be there selling a few boxes of cra^W aged 
equipment)
