OT: LUGs dying out

[Shawn Badger]

Based on what the article was saying it looks like PLUG is doing very well
and has stuck to what works. Most of the LUGs they talked to have become
more of a Stomptesh (sp) type meeting and left it at that. I personally like
the presentations that are given at the meetings. They don't always pertain
to something I am interested in, but I have learned about alot of
applications that I otherwise didn't know about or how do something in that
app.
