I know for a fact that I can't attend any of these items during the regular work day/week. No way bosses will give me time off for things that are unrelated. Even things that might be related they would have a hard time justifying. On 13-09-24 08:45 PM, Mel Walters wrote: > Hi CLUG members, > >

I here you. I would say you are in the majority. That is why I would like to invite speakers to one of our meetings. Logistics of that working out easily are slim though. But I will try. Mel On Wed, 2013-09-25 at 07:51 -0600, TekBudda wrote: > I know for a fact that I can't attend any of these it
