[PLUG] Other ALC courses

[David Mandel]

Yes, indeed there seems to be an interest in this.
Would you be interested in giving this at the general PLUG meeting?
You said you might now be able to do the July meeting.
Actually, we are going to need to move the July meeting to the
second Thursday of the month - July 11, 2002.
Could you give the talk then?
If not, how about September?  August is booked.
