Collins and all,

My basement is available in 80123 (Belleview and Lowell), with tables,
low-res projector, and a very few systems.  My classrooms in 80202 (18th
and Curtis) are also available with the the same facilities, but many
more systems to work and play on.

What you're loooking for kinda sounds like what we used to do with Linux
Fun-da-mentals.  Want to help me resurrect it?  All I need is one or two
people that are willing to show up regularly, and help me with things...
