Hello! My name is John and I live in Tucson, I remembered that the Make Blog had mentioned Phoenix had a DIY group of some sorts in a posting or two so I searched out this mailing list. Are there any upcoming gatherings planned? I'm a computer geek who has branched out into cars and as of late scooters, I have a friend who is going to teach me welding and I've done basic wiring already in my automotive projects. I participated in the 2009 BABE Rally which is a road rally from New York to New Orleans in a $250 car which required some innovative repairs in-route and someday I'd love to do something like the Scooter Cannonball on a vintage scooter. -- A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. ---Heinlein Sent from: Tucson Arizona United States.
