Yeah, must have been thinking elsewhere on that one. From now on, I will
use jiggy instead :p

We are looking at 3 locations right now. Schaumurg Library, IIT, and now
Pumping Station One. If Pumping Station One will have us, I think we may
use them this time around. We will definitely have this one planned well in
advance like we did last year.

The reason we rushed the doc jam we are hosting and set it up a bit quick,
as those that would be interested in actually contributing would still make
it. We had to make sure we had 2 key people who could make the event,
myself and Jim Campbell. Otherwise a doc jam might not have been possible.
