Hmm. A thought. It's not Emory University. It probably would not be  
able to provide wireless access -- though perhaps arrangements could  
be made to do so. But the Clarkston Community Center is an attractive  
facility. There are a couple of techies who've set up a computer lab  
and teach classes there -- as volunteers. It's readily accessible from  
285. Georgia Perimeter College, which is nearby, might be roped into  
helping out/participating in some way. It would be an opportunity to  
connect with a population that would be well-served by learning more  
about the open-source movement, products, and community -- the low- 
income population. [Though Clarkston is not only low-income.] Just a  
thought.
