[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:53:50] <johnc4510-laptop> Ubuntu podcast here: http://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/2008/04/07/s01e03-help-me/
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:53:53] <johnc4510-laptop> This is only the 3rd podcast, but they are interesting if you have the time to listen.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:54:25] <johnc4510-laptop> this is a uk podcast but the people putting it on are very knowledgable
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:54:57] <johnc4510-laptop> tyche did one final change to the release flyers: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=754539
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:55:14] <johnc4510-laptop> the link is also in the topic if you need it quick
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:55:33] <johnc4510-laptop> These are the ones we want you to use please.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:55:49] <tyche>    I made a mistake on the previous ones.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:55:58] <tyche>    I didn't mention that it was a release party.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:56:01] <johnc4510-laptop> tyche: how many flyers have you given out?
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:56:02] <johnc4510-laptop> lol
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:56:07] <tyche>    I've corrected it.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:56:08] <johnc4510-laptop> on the hot seat
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:56:16] <johnc4510-laptop> it was my fault
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:56:18] <tyche>    I've got 20 made, but no takers yet.

[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:56:55] <tyche>    That's the problem is finding them in "rich country"
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:57:05] <johnc4510-laptop> ie libraries, grocery stores, post offices,
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:57:09] <johnc4510-laptop> ah

[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:57:38] <enigmastrat>      hey, I'm back
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:57:43] <johnc4510-laptop> cool

[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:58:05] <johnc4510-laptop> Tyndall is one block east of Euclid and the shop is half a block South off of University. Or about 2 and a half blocks North off of 5th Street.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:58:39] <johnc4510-laptop> you can use google map and put in the addresses for a better idea of the locations
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:59:03] <johnc4510-laptop> For the Tucson release party, the sub shop will be a good place to relax and have some fun. I went there and the wifi was good and easy to connect to. Music, and the owner was nice and very accommodating. There are not a lot of plugs, but he said we could run extentions and power strips as needed.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:59:19] <johnc4510-laptop> .
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:59:19] <johnc4510-laptop> ..
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [20:59:35] <johnc4510-laptop> We can order food individually, or he offered party trays. I might buy a party tray to start us off, depending on how many members are going to show up. Either way, we should patronize the place since they're being nice enough to let us use it for our get together. Of course, the same holds true for the Phoenix party at the Pizza Place. Everyone should plan on eating dinner at these places.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:00:00] <johnc4510-laptop> .
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:00:12] <johnc4510-laptop> we want to show our appreciation of course :)
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:00:59] <johnc4510-laptop> please remind me that i have a couple of questions for soldats when he shows up
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:01:10] <johnc4510-laptop> he said around 9:30
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:01:22] <enigmastrat>      YAY! RAID5 is back!
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:01:25] <johnc4510-laptop> I also need to add it to craiglist. tyche did you just add it to the current day, or is there some kind of calendar?
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:01:30] <enigmastrat>      sorry, just had to let you know
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:01:34] <johnc4510-laptop> np
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:01:54] <johnc4510-laptop> tyche: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^?
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:01:59] <tyche>    I'd have to get the procedure from the thinking half of this team.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:02:03] <tyche>    I'll let you know.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:02:09] <johnc4510-laptop> kk
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:02:29] <johnc4510-laptop> if you did it on a day, don't you need to redo it everyday?
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:02:42] <johnc4510-laptop> or is it on until you take it off
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:02:47] <tyche>    No, it's set up under Events for a particular day.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:02:48] <johnc4510-laptop> i know, you have to ask
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:03:09] <johnc4510-laptop> so, does it show up only on that day?
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:03:16] <johnc4510-laptop> trying to understand
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:03:17] <johnc4510-laptop> :)
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:03:43] <tyche>    No, it shows up in chronological order with all the other events that are happening between now and then.
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:03:52] <johnc4510-laptop> ah nice
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:03:54] <johnc4510-laptop> :)

[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:07:28] <johnc4510-laptop> thx
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:08:08] <johnc4510-laptop> i'm also researching other radio shows doing computer drive in tucson and phoenix to see if we can get a plug on them
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:08:17] <soldats>  good good
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:08:19] <johnc4510-laptop> google is your friend
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:08:21] <johnc4510-laptop> :)
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:08:50] <johnc4510-laptop> now, shouldn't we at least try sending the info to local papers??
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:09:06] <johnc4510-laptop> it's a long shot but maybe worth trying
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:09:20] <johnc4510-laptop> also the tv stations
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:09:28] <soldats>  tucson weekly would be good even the daily star would probly work
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:09:48] <soldats>  cox cable has some sort of event reminders that air so you can contact them as well
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:09:49] <johnc4510-laptop> majors like abc, etc probably won't do it, but pbs might??
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:10:08] <johnc4510-laptop> ah, good idea soldats
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:10:10] <johnc4510-laptop> :)

[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:10:38] <johnc4510-laptop> i wonder if tucson shopper would do it without charge
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:10:56] <johnc4510-laptop> it's a weekly ad type publication
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:11:25] <kennymc0> did i miss the meeting?
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:11:26] <soldats>  i think if you write a good letter to tucson weekly they might put it on the second page or something send the flyer as well in the email
[Sun Apr 13 2008] [21:11:33] <johnc4510-laptop> kennymc0: kind of
