Not to be an ass, but I didn't even consider the possibility that anyone 
in Gwinnett would attend at KSU. The proposal was not made to find a 
central location, it was made because I was aware of a number of folks 
in this vicinity who have similar Linux interests and are regulars on 
the list, but not at the meetings.

I wouldn't travel to Rome for a meeting.

I'd suggest that those folks who can't make it to the Emory meeting for 
whatever the reason find out who around you has interest in getting 
together.  I figured if there weren't but a couple of folks, I'd offer 
to meet in my basement, but it appears there are more then enough to 
warrant a meeting in a facility.  Not to mention the fact that it could 
well grow the organization by adding folks from the KSU staff/student 
bodies.

Tell Gwinnett County.
