[LoCo-US-AL] How can I introduce UBUNTU to the High School her and also to the local College

[Michael Ramm]

First and foremost...Where is here?? We have folks spread out across the
state with a Birmingham concentration. See the map
here:http://snurl.com/ubuntualmap

Once we determine where you are, we can look at getting you comfortable with
resources about talking about Ubuntu. Talk to the IT guys at the schools. I
bet that they have heard about Ubuntu. They would be good allies for your
future fight (and believe me, there will be a fight). I think that starting
kids out on Ubuntu is the way to get them comfortable.

Also drop by the IRC room tonight around 9pm. There will (hopefully) be a
good number of us in there, and we can help you get started.

Looking forward to your responses,
Michael
