@bobsal u1553115,
I've been privileged to have met many a2kers, and hope to meet more in the future. We may not always agree on some subjects, but face-to-face meetings are priceless events. I have organized meets in San Francisco in the past, but that's old history. I hope somebody takes the lead, and organize meets around the country. We even had meets in London and Lippstadt, Germany.
BTW, I haven't seen George O'Brien around. I hope he's okay.
