["Paul L. Snyder" <paul@pataprogramming.com>]

PLUG North will be meeting on Tuesday, January 8 at CoreDial's
offices in Blue Bell, beginning at 6:30 pm. Directions to the
meeting location can be found at the end of this email.  

This month, PLUG welcomes John Ashmead, who will be giving a talk
entitled "Mars or Bust!"

  Mars:

  Why do we want to go? How do we get there? How do we live
  there? What might we find? What are the dangers: radiation,
  low gravity, dust, our fellow humans? Is there life on Mars
  now? Was there once? and did our own evolution actually start
  on Mars?

And the Linux connection?

  Linux has been used for at least one NASA rover <http://www.bloggernews.net/116062>.

At 6:30, prior to the main meeting, we'll assemble in CoreDial's
game room for shuffleboard, pool, and conversation

The meeting will take place from 6:30-9pm (6:30-7 games and
conversation, 7-8 General Q&A, 8-9 Presentation) at CoreDial's
office space in Blue Bell, PA.
