Setting common rules about weather cancels of KCLUG events.

I think the prudent thing to do is see what happens tonight and whether
our office will even be open tomorrow.  If it is and I am able to get to
work then I see no reason why we cannot have our meeting in the evening.
However, if the office is closed or I am not able to get to work then I
think since it is a trial run meeting we should call it off.  I will
send an email out as soon as I know something tomorrow and let people
know.  I will send it to the email list and post it on the Forum.  That
should cover everyone.

	Exactly.  The only time we've ever cancelled a meeting was
because the Library was closed.  
	
	This does raise an issue for impending test meeting.  If our
hosts be of the mind that the weather doth well and truly suck, how do
we find out? The Library is the sort of institution that notifies the
TV/radio stations, so they appear on lists of closings.  Rather than
fielding calls from a dozen or three geeks, I'd expect them to want to
do something similar. 
	
	And given our proclivities, I'd expect we'd give Vital Systems'
management a special login for kclug.org that allows them to flag that
night's meeting as cancelled due to weather, terrorist threat, etc.
without having to locate whoever has the keys to the Executive Washroom.

	
	Definitely something to think about.
