My feeling is do it right here. Would that
violate Grovenet? Personally, I don't need
another meeting to go to, and, one of the things
that is listed on many lists of what we can do to
mitigate global warming is to do our work at home
if possible. We can have our discussion right
where we sit and, as we come up with ideas,
others can chime in with their ideas. Would that
work? Would anyone not like us to use Grovenet in
that way?
