How long have you been on? We've been kind of dead this summer, this picnic
was an idea to get some blood flowing within our community that had been

I'm not sure what 'They may have seen what I've seen' is referring to, could

start taking to 'involve the community' more, other than posting on other
LUG lists (which we should have done)?
