[SGVHAK] Greetings from SCALE & t-shirts

[Tux Lab]

. . .wait,. . I think we can strike over the wrong web address and print
the correct sgvhak.org with a larger bold font underneath the stricken old

>> stopped a couple of times by people curious about the shirt.
>>
>> Because a significant fraction of the audiovisual volunteers were wearing

>>
>> Our Birds of a Feather session was packed and we had good conversation.
>> The group was so large we had many clusters of people chatting among

>> James saved the day by getting us that domain and setting a redirect.
>>
>> See you at HAK on March 7th.  I hear we may get a demo of stepper motor
>> at this meeting.  I don't know if Doug will have his PengPod yet.  And
>> Braddock can tell us a bit more about his Internet in a Box project.  (Also
>> about that one-time-password device he talked about at the BoF.)
