I prefer in many ways to not eat up PLUG presentation time or PLUG-DEVEL
time for an intro at this point.  I have done such a presentation (east
side) within the last 12 months so don't want monopolize time.  I have no
problem doing like most professors do and have a short 'syllabus' type
meeting.  To go over GNUe basics/philosophy and what the 4 week class
would entail.

I have insane scheduling, but one of my committments (Coaching Director of
Local Soccer Club) is in a lull during July/August.  So I would love to do
the classes July - August (maybe last 3 weeks July first 2/3 weeks August)

Tuesday and Thursday nights work best for me, so would have to look at
those being optimal.  I suspect the location will be Tempe, seeing how the
facility that might be willing to offer training room is located there.

If there really is a ground swelling (which the response is already more
than I expected)  I might look at making it 2 week class Tuesday &
Thursday night.  Then perhaps could offer two such sessions before my
schedule goes nuts.  I'm flexible to get most people there as possible.
