        Announcing the beginning phases of the initiation of the
 
 		Phoenix-area Linux Users Group (PLUG :-)

 (Notice the key phrase "beginning phases of the initiation of" up there!)
 
 I'm hereby volunteering to start PLUG (and am open to different names, also).
 
 However, some caveats: 
 
 1) If *I* run this thing, it has to be done during lunch as I do not 
    have any free evenings.  I expect to plan meetings once a month on 
    a regular day (say, first Monday, 4th Friday, whatever the initial 
    group decides is best for it).
 
 2) My current plan is to have the meetings at Aunt Chilada's, 
    7330 N Dreamy Draw Drive (or, as an alternative, we might be able 
    to have it at The Left Seat, 2633 E Air Lane).  I've already gotten 
    preliminary OK from Aunt Chilada's.  Until we get larger than 15 
    folks, we will simply meet in the "normal" dining room.
 
 So, how many people are interested, given the above caveats?
 
 How many people would be interested only if the meetings were NOT for lunch?
 
 If the "vast majority" (whatever THAT means) of respondents can only come
 for a supper or after supper meeting, then I'll also need a volunteer to
 be the "new PLUG leader", 'cause I won't be able to start (or attend) an 
 evening group...
