If you have something you'd like to present, please let me know. I'll reply to the list with more details after the presentations are finalized. Directions are included below. -Tommy To get there: Take the 101 Freeway to the Lindero Canyon Road exit and head north. Pass the Memorial Park on your right and turn right at the 2nd light for Russell Ranch Road (you will see a Chiptole at that corner). Pass the Costco to your right, and then take the first right into the parking lot (there is a little yellow parcel box that you can use in spotting the driveway that you need to turn into). Turn left toward the glass doors in the far corner.

Hmm...I can't promise that there will be beer and nachos at the meeting, but I am looking forward to learning about KiokuDB! It's something like Moose, serving as a replacement for a traditional database.

Great, we look forward to having you, Randal! > The question is, when do I start driving to get there? :) Haha, that is a good question. When I went to Culver City from Westlake Village I took PCH to the 10, etc. I don't know if that less or more painful than the 405 to the 101. Either way, I would say to allow for an hour (or maybe a bit more) of driving. X( I would probably go for the PCH route.

A lot prettier too than heading up the 405, which as I recall is only pretty for about 3 miles of it. I'll leave about 5:15-ish, and hope for the best. -- Randal L.
