<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Just to introduce myself a bit, my name is Charles
Studler. I am from the Ardmore area, but I drive a truck over the
road. I get to Oklahome once every couple of months, or so. I want
to help spread Ubuntu. I'm getting some apps together to show
Owner/Operators how they can manage their assets and loads more
efficiently. I've also been contacting a friend who writes articles for a
couple of trucker magazines and has a show on XM radio geared for truckers, and
he is going to look into porting some of his apps over to linux. Other
than that, what can a 28 year old college drop out do to help?</font></div>

<br><br>The US team had a good discussion recently which is archived on the <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USTeams/Minutes/July28">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USTeams/Minutes/July28</a> page. There's a number of ideas there; I hope everyone will review it.
<br><br>I guess the key is to let people know they have a viable choice when it comes to software for their computers. Speaking with groups you're already involved with is great! Or for a crazier idea try getting an UBUNTU license plate. Who who be the first in OK for that?
