	Well, I couldn't figure out how to work the RSVP. (I don't do 
yahoo.) So I'll ask three questions here; sorry about that.

	If I can't get there at 10, is it any use to come at 1?

	I have a couple of GPSs with waypoints, but lots of them are 
unlikely to be of any interest to anyone else. Is that OK?

	Finally the Gretchenfrage : do any of you run Linux??
