[TCMUG] Carpool to March Meeting?

[Fawcett, David]

Jennifer, 

I will be coming from the MPCA office (far side of downtown St. Paul).
I would be happy to pick you up and bring you to the meeting.  I will
likely need to head over to SW Minneapolis as soon as the meeting is
over to relieve my wife of post-daycare kid chaos, so I wouldn't be able
to drive you back after the meeting.  

Let me know if you want to me to pick you up.  

David.

Hi Jennifer,

There's definitely people coming from St. Paul to the MAC.  I can see 
David Fawcett and Steve Lime as possible rides, although David lives in 
Minneapolis so wouldn't be heading back after the meeting.  I can also 
give you a ride but I'll have to leave early as I have coaching duties 
at 5:00PM.  There are hopefully other folks from St. Paul who realize 
they don't need a passport to come to Minneapolis. (or is it 
Bloomington?) ;)

So, how about it folks?

PS: Very nice site!
