That's my point.  I am an individual, working for a company, that has
meeting space accessible to it's employees.  As long as I use the
space under the company's guidelines, it is available for use by user
groups.  What company I work for is irrelevant.

I'm sure that other NewTLUG or TLUG members also work for companies
that may have space available for use.

Me too... that would make for some interesting meetings, I'm sure. ;-)
