	So Gord, that's where you guys went. That was what... 20 years ago?
Things have sure changed. We used to have the occational meeting with
200 people showing up and a membership of 1000 internationally. Now our
meetings are six regulars and around 15 total. I heard Macinations and
the MWCS have not had a meeting in a while. An unfortunate trend in
usergroup support.

	I don't mind Arts little joke. Nobody takes these things seriously
unless they get personal. Clearly he can't tell the difference between
an Apple and a Mac. Maybe we should throw certain members of the WPCUG
in a tank and watch them bob for a clue. ;-) Just kidding. Most of their
group used to belong to ours (they just won't admit to it). Hopefully
they'll last at least as long as we have so far.

				Later
				Mike
