These days, I think most would agree that I am a LUG meet regular. A few
years ago though before I have ever attended a meeting, I joined the
mailing list first just to keep up with what was going on.  I wanted to
know not just what events or meeting subjects were coming up, but also
to get some idea of the kind of people I would be likely to meet there.
