<div dir="ltr">I agree. An OSS movie night would be great, as would an OSS gaming night (assuming we determined what games would be played ahead of time so we wouldn't waste a lot of time getting everyone set up). <br> etank also mentioned at OLF the possibility of doing a meeting where we go through some of the videos on <a href="http://www.showmedo.com">http://www.showmedo.com</a> to start learning python (or something else).<br><br><br> <div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 1:31 PM, Steven Walter <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:stevenrwalter@gmail.com">stevenrwalter@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div class="Ih2E3d"><br> On Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 1:24 PM, Eric Lake <<a href="mailto:ericlake@gmail.com">ericlake@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br> > Some of us were able to make it to OLF this year and it was awesome (IMHO).<br> > One thing that they had there was an Open Movie theater.
