Well, I can tell you that when we started PLUG, there were only a small
number of attendees for quite a while. Chris has been pretty careful to
always get announcements in to local newsgroups and to some of the other
related organizations. There's a Penn Linux group, a couple of Debian
groups locally, and a Perl group that meets regularly. The newsgroup
announcements seemed to help with attendance. A convenient and actively
cooperative venue helped/helps a lot. How about a company out there, where
one of the interested parties works? There's benefits to the company and
to the Linux group.

I could be interested, especially if it'd be easily accessible from the
PATCO high speed line. The busses take so long, etc., that I'd be less
likely to bother if I had to use those.

There's a nice coffee house a short walk from the Haddonfield stop on
the PATCO line. They changed their name recently and I don't remember what
it is now.
