Very much alive :-D Just been out of town and busy with things. And nope M$ hasn't paid me anything..........yet :-) I've been hoping a couple of people can help in taking the lead in the group when I'm not around. But from the way things have been going in my absence, I'm happy to see people in the group take the initiative. Though I still need to apologize for being inactive in the activities of the group.
Well, hopefully sometime this week I can go to the library and schedule our meetings for 2002. I was hoping we could move the meeting to the first Wednesday of every month if no one has any problems with that.
