I think you're running into what I did, and probably what Jerry started to. I'm willing to host a June Quarterly, which should give *someone* plenty of time to find a good speaker for it. If there's no speaker, then it'll turn into the usual "Geek Social Picnic". For what its worth, Centralug has been increasing in activity largely due to the efforts of Dave Berube. I'd like to suggest that the groups have created a comfortable structure and that they feel they don't need Quarterly "global" meetings anymore. But that they do like (or don't care about) the infrastructure that GNHLUG set up, and might continue to use it - especially when one finds a "big name" to come speak. Sorta like BLU, SwANH, and GNSEG do with GNHLUG. --Bruce
