Sunday!
that's a good time for me...
if it is not a typo or something, then
Maybe I could attend.
(how do I sign up?)
I plan to be out of town Nov. 6 --> 13,
(and I might be out of radio contact [away from e-mail/net] then);
and I have a VERY busy day Nov 14;
but it sounds interesting.
...will I get less out of it, if I've missed the "pre-requisites"?
On second thought, maybe I should just "observe" if I do go;
or maybe there will be a team that will allow me to join them
as a junior go-pher / trainee or something...
