[LA.pm] Perl October Meeting - Next Wednesay! Speakers wanted!

[Mike MacKenzie]

I'm only in LA on Thursdays now.  If you moved the meeting to Thursday, I might actually be able to show up. This talk sound very interesting to me as I'm mostly a self-taught programmer and have been trying to beef up my formal CS knowledge recently.

-Mike

I would love to hear that.  Although, Wednesdays are tough for me to 
make these days.  I wonder how people feel about Thursdays ... not this 
month, of course, but just checking the mood of the group for a change 
of weekday.

And/or, if there's any way to record the talk this month, that'd be 
awesome! :-)
