Subject: HLUG Meeting and Dinner, June 1st

The next HLUG meeting (June 1st) will be at McMaster University (room
TBA) and will feature Peter Salus as our guest speaker.   Peter
expressed an interest in meeting everyone for dinner before the meeting
and we will be dining at Boston Pizza on Main St. West (just west of the
University).  Ron has reserved the bar side of the restaurant from 6:00
to 8:00, but I need to know how many people are coming.  If you are
interested in the dinner, please RSVP before by May 30th (and yes, you
have to pay for your own food and beverages : ) ).

PLEASE NOTE: The meeting will start at about 8:30 (to accomodate dinner)
and run until our usual time.

We're also asking for contributions (in the $1 to $5 range) towards a
"thank you" gift for Peter - if you're interested, please let me know
asap.

Cheers,
Jennifer
