Okay, the way things stand at the moment, there seem to be two "officers":

Brian - Founder/President-By-Default
Me - Publicity Guy/Guy who stands up at the end of the meeting to discuss
what to do next time

I think we need to do a little better than this is all.

I like the library idea, but where can we keep it?  How about an online
library (alot of ORA books are online) until we do have a place for it.

The pizza idea was good, but I doubt its practical either.
