[sac-forum] Re: Last night's meeting and new site

OK, Janis, thanks for the perfect segue. The "Official" SAC star party is
actually Saturday, 10 Feb. The "Official" Site is Flatiron. That being said
I'd like to give Dirt Road Blvd a look-see and get an idea of how that site
stacks up as a successor to Flatiron. 

Sooo. The 96.8384 Bulgarian Leva Question is... Who else is planning on
going to DRB? Who would still make the trek to Flatiron? 


Well????

 Was unable to make last SAC meeting.  If the "official" star party is still
11 Feb., what site was chosen for it?

Thanks,    Janis
