The "Lose FAT now!" T-shirts are done, and they look fantastic!  Evan loves
his new penguin night-shirt.
I've posted pictures at http://TheGeek.NU/LoseFATnow.htm.  Let me know if
you want one or more.
I will place the next order on Monday, March 4th.

Lynn and Phil:  If you want to cancel your order(s), please cancel before
March 4th!

This is an interest-level check at this time.  If you are interested in
forming a group of gamers in greater Denver to play Linux-native games with,
or you already know of one, please reply directly to me.  (Simply replying
to the list will not work; I am not a member at this time.)

The objective would be to have 8 or more people interested in playing once a
week over the Internet, and then quarterly or bi-annual LAN parties.

We could call it LaGGeD (Linux Gamers of Greater Denver)!
