Starlah,
I live in Vancouver, BC Canada. I travel to the States and set up ground crew meetings a lot there. I try here in BC, but it's so expensive to live in Vancouver, I'm afraid every one gets too tuckered out by the time the weekends show up! Perhaps it's the rain, or more recently the snow! But people are a little less likely to get off the computer here and meet face to face, perhaps they are just too sleepy

? I've had two meetings here, and so far it's just been me and Mizar chewing the fat over coffee.
Peace of Mind,
Wormhole
