Welcome to the wild west of open email lists and no leadership.  The web
site is languishing, the linuxfest will be here without any real direction
so far.   Eh -- seems about par.  I'm on several automotive lists and none
of them have the attitudes and that shown here.  Guess what -- we don't
have any spam either!  

If I had more time I'd be more involved, but I'm already spread thin enough
as it is.   Perhaps someone could benchmark some other LUG's and come up
with the best practices from them and implement them here.   It seems an
awful shame to have all this knowledge and "one-up-manship" going on with
no real results.
