Re: Subject: Audifest '99

[c a l i b a n <caliban@sharon.net>]

	again i want to propose several regional meetings,
	perhaps on the same weekend, as sor tof a build up 
	to the pike's peak main event.  i'll probably not 
	make pike's peak (though mike will try to knock me
	out and throw me in the trunk and drive me there)
	but could do something with a 1-day drive.

	you know me by now - if it's a tough choice, chose
	both.
