We may be a bit "rough around the edges" but we are pretty solid
community. :)

Welcome to the world outside the vacuum!

The opportunity to do a face-to-face with the more social geeks on ALE
may present itself shortly. As a now (hopefully) annual event, we try to
have a spring picnic/cookout/get together. Last year, I hosted at my
house
http://tomshiro.org/twiki/view/ALE/GreatALEPicnicTwo
and the 2004 event was hosted by Tom Shapiro
http://tomshiro.org/twiki/view/ALE/GreatALEPicnic

Rumors are flying that another ALEer is planning on hosting the 2007
event so stay tuned for more :)
