Happy Valentine's Day?

[Tyler Hall]

Speaking of more "different" people, I think we should try to get more
teenagers involved.   Being (I believe) the youngest person there at 18,
really is weird.   People look at me like i'm some kind of weird sort of
nerd or something?   If anyone knows any teenagers that are getting involved
in Linux, please invite them along, I need to meet some people my own age!
