Fw: [UFO Chicago] Social Life

[Paul Suda]

Yeah, I'm down with a big free software event. I agree that maybe it would
be fun to rent out a room at a restaurant. I think it should be one that
has pitchers of beer available. A lot of us (myself included) seem to like
beer but hate cigarrette smoke and never want to go to bars for free
software events. This would give us a chance to take over a room, make it
smoke free, then drink to our heart's content. Then again, a restaurant
without beer that just has good food might be fun too.

Are any of you planning on going out to the Compter Show and Linuxfest at
the College of Dupage. I don't have any idea where the College of Dupage
is, and this is the only info I have... I got this from a LUNI post sent to
the subscriber list after the list server went down....

So, I think I will be free saturday or sunday afternoon and thought I
would see if any other UFOers wanted to take a trip out there with me.
I have a car, and I can drive. If anyone else is interested, I'll
see if I can find out more.
