OK, Terry tells me he's got a *heated* work space... and that makes up *my*
mind. The wheelbuilding seminar will be at his place. Considering it was 34
degrees this morning, I think this is a Very Good Thing.
The time hasn't changed: we'll get together at 3PM (after the RARE ride) on
November 19th and build wheels into the night. Par-tee!
Right now this is the list of attendees:
"Tweety" Marilyn
Todd Marley
Bill Pullen
Sylvia Halpern
Don Hoskinsson
Kirke Johnson
Bruce Parker
and "Deery", of course.
I'm going to email all of these people off-list so we can make sure everyone
knows how to get to Terry's place. Anyone else interested?
