                             Anyone & Everyone

     Instead of having a formal presentation, we will get together and
     discuss anything anyone wants to discuss in brief sessions of no
     more than a few minutes each.  If we have enough people involved
     we can break into smaller groups to handle each topic.

     Two topics that I will be prepared to discuss for a few minutes
     will be:
          -  Subsistence Computing
             How to do good computing on a low budget.
          -  Could we lose the internet to Government and Corporate
             interests?

    AND YES - We are looking for speakers for upcoming months.
              Volunteers and Recommendations are welcome.
