[GTALUG] Tutorials on Linux command-line -- any interest?

There was no formal discussion with the GTALUG board.  I just got tired
of talking about it and decided to show initiative. :-)

GTALUG has long ceased to be "users group" and has degenerated to social
get-together.  Symptoms are
    - It has stopped growing.
    - No new idea or people are coming in.
    - It's not doing anything, because the current people are already
      expert in what they are doing, so no need to do anything.
    - It's falling behind the time.  There are people who knows Linux
      and never heard about GTALUG.  (I see this at work)

So, what's the cure?  I think that structured tutorials is the best way
to hold on to people.  "Linux Command-Line" is not the only topics.
There are many others, even from this mailing list alone.
