[PLUG] A training cooperative?

[Jon Jacob]

I guess you must have missed my last email to you, Mike :)

I appreciate the offer.  It is indeed very kind, but the location is a

to teach a class out there, go for it.

However, I am not willing to make the trip out there for this, and I am
worried that others might feel the same way.
