Date:     Fri, 11 Jun 2004 22:14:48 -0400

I wanted to have Rob look this over before sending it out, but in the
interest of getting the word out with sufficient advance notice, I
decided to compose the message myself.


Monday June 14th, Greg Rundlett will be our guest speaker at the monthly
meeting of the Seacoast Linux User Group chapter of GNHLUG.  As usual,
the meeting is scheduled for the second Monday of the month at 7PM in
Morse Hall of the University of New Hampshire.  Go up to the 3rd floor,
meeting is held in Conference Room 301. See
