[kw-pm] Re: February meeting proposal

[Daniel R. Allen]

Proposal: meet Wednesday, the 18th of February, at 7pm; U of W bioinfo
lab, 7-8:30; then adjourn to Morty's.

Ack? Nak?  Let me know off-list if, say, Thursday works better.

It would be nice if we could get a real turnout (that is to say, greater
than 6 people); even though we can't beer in the lab (due to strict U of W
policy, alas).
