Meetings can take place where and when people want to have them. If a
south or north or east-by-southeast/Florence meeting crops up, go for it.

There is the problem of balance: Doing enough meetings to have at least
one convenient to those that want to attend but not having so many that
attendance at any given meeting is down to 3 people. But we can work all
that out as long as we keep talking.

The user map is at:
http://plug.phoenix.az.us/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=36

(Kevin did that and would probably complain that he wants to update it and
I have not provided the proper permissions for him to do so. I'll have to
get on that.)
