Hi Evan,

The original post on this thread was about a terrific workshop being offered
on a Sunday at djp's Linux Caffe -- one I wish I could have gone to, because
building an audio/video workstation is one of the (many) things I'd like to
accomplish using Linux. I'm also kinda keen to see the inside of the Linux
Caffe .. unfortunately, Father's Day also fell on that date, which for me,
made it impossible to attend.

As far as the monthly meetings go, I think *when* they occur is not as large
an obstacle as what the topic is. I'm sure that some TLUG members go to all
of the meetings, partly because they're interested in the topic, but partly
because that's what they do. For example, I have chorus rehearsals every
Monday night -- that's what I do. I think I've missed two rehearsals in
seven or eight years. On Tuesday nights, some of us are juggling all kinds
of other obligations, and have to decide if the topic is a "can't miss", as
well as plan ahead so as to be able to come out.
