Subject:	SCOUG-General: [Editorial] SCOUG In The Car

Content Type: text/plain

I second that suggestion. I have been a member of the
APL special interest group (SIGAPL) for many years.
We have heard many fine presentations from speakers
who have since been deceased or moved out of town.
The subjects often were unique, and very original.
Today we, the surviving members would give a fortune
to be able to hear what these speakers had told us.
