| I'm new to the KCLUG as well.  I am hoping to meet some like-minded
| (think information should stay free for public good, etc.) people.
| Another reason I'm joining is because hardly anyone I know actually use
| linux.  They're mostly windows techs who say " yeah, I need to start
| learning linux" but never do.  I've been using OSS and gnu-linux now for
| about 3 years or so, and don't consider myself green any more (however,
| I still know hardly anything in the grand scheme).  As a result of this,
| I was also joining hoping to find some projects I could work on
| locally.  For example, schools or something non-profit that needs a
| solution.  I can help!!!!!!  If anyone knows of anything like this,
| please let me know...

Welcome Kevin and Shayne!
