[buug] I'll be back (Ian Zimmerman)

[Michael Paoli]

So, ... if 7-9 P.M. Th. Oct. 4th (regular BUUG meeting) is too late
for your schedule this time around, shall we have an informal meet-up
on Wed. Oct. 3rd 7-9 P.M.?  At the BUUG venue (
Au Coquelet Cafe, 2000 University Ave., Berkeley, CA 94704-1006
[1-510-845-0433])?  If that works for you, should we let the BADies know
too (also not the proper date for a BAD meeting, but doesn't mean we
can't invite folks for a little informal gathering anyway).
Could even invite folks for keysigning, if you want (hey, you
presently qualify as an out-of-area visitor).

BUUG would still do it's "regular" meeting on Oct. 4th (to avoid
horribly confusing folks that show up on the "regular" meeting date);
likewise BAD would still meet on it's regular meeting date this month ...
well, if someone actually calls the BAD meeting, anyway.

Not sure if it's every Wednesday, but I think there's also a (small?)
physics and cosmology group that meets at Au Coquelet Cafe on
(at least some) Wednesdays ... but I couldn't track down a reference
on that - at least with a quick Google search (I think we bumped into them
once before, on the Th after a W holiday ... possibly on 2007-07-05 -
they'd pushed their meeting one day later due to the holiday).
