Excellent initiative, worthy of a presidential position in the group. Everyone, remember that when Paul leaves the meeting room long enough for a vote. ;-)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Dec 6, 2008 at 11:40 AM, Paul Lange <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:plange@gmail.com">plange@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I booked the room last night and so it has been formalized:<br>

What: December Austin Perl Mongers Meeting<br>
When: December 17, 2008, 7pm<br>
Where: Genuine Joe Coffeehouse, 2001 W. Anderson Lane, back room<br>
Why (Topic): Stagnation of Interest in Perl and How to Reverse It<br>
<br>
I purchased $50 in gift cards as required, so any attendee who wants<br>
to buy food or drink that night should give their money to me to<br>
reimburse the purchases until the gift card amounts are exhausted.<br>
There is no obligation to buy food or drink, but I do encourage it.<br>
<br>
I can do an introduction on the topic to get things started.<br>
<br>
It's not my intention to hijack the group or its meetings, however I<br>
thought it best to come on strong in order to get the blood flowing<br>
this month. If somebody has a better idea or has a presentation for<br>
another topic already prepared, feel free to interject.<br>
<br>
Montgomery, since I'm putting you out a little by forcing it farther<br>
north, I'll buy your first coffee/hot chocolate.<br>
