We still dont have email groups.. we had newsgroups.... and the meeting at Allan brothers was over a year after the news group... maybe 2... I was there for that meeting.. I remember we discussed where to have the meetings... since outside allan bros was sucky and uninviting... we discussed other places that served alcohol, but we didnt want to exclude minors... I remember that, but I dont remember any coup... or anyone claiming they were any president...
