16:43 < stlsaint> i am going to school for MCIS (same as spridel ) 
16:44 < stlsaint> i wanted to form this group because i really enjoy ubuntu and wanted to share my experience wiht others and learn from others
16:44 < stlsaint> also the fact that there was no loco here

16:51 < stlsaint> wiki writing is easy once you learn it and i will teach all who would like help
16:52 < stlsaint> have you guys heard of the Ubuntu Code of Conduct
