The next PLUG meeting is this wednesday, 1/8, 2 days from now, at USP, in
university city - the west part of center city philadelphia.  Our last
meeting at this location went very well - our highest turnout since we
began recording attendance in April of 2000 - 48 people, and there was
plenty of room for more.  

Where:
      University of the Sciences in Philadelphia (USP)
      Rosenberger Hall, Room 102
      600 South 43rd Street
      Philadelphia, PA 19104-4495

When: 7pm-9pm+

Food: We'll probably walk to a nearby restaurant to eat afterward like we
      did last time..

Keysigning: 
      I believe at least 2 new people will be participating, so if you want
      to participate for the first time, read
      http://www.PhillyLinux.org/keys/ and email your public key to
      Darxus@ChaosReigns.com.  New people so far:

pub  1024D/7262954A 2001-07-18 John Beck <jbeck@jbwd.net>


In September, we are going to have *two* meetings.  The first one will
be at the normal time and place (1st wednesday of the month (9/5),
at USP), the second one will be the Tuesday of the week after (9/11),
at Netaxs in Conshohocken.  We decided to try this because a number of
things have been going well - general attendance, volunteer presenters,
attendance at our one meeting at Netaxs, combined with comments from
numerous people that Netaxs is much more accessable to them.  So this
will be a trial.  If it goes well, we'll probably do it again.
