IML: Portland MicroMeet

["Eric" <gearhead@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,
I'll add that we had a fun, casual get-together. While everyone else had 
other obligations afterwards, Bryan and I went to a local restaurant for a 
late lunch. As we went out to our cars, we found that they were being 
admired by a guy who held a good, long coversation with us about his years 
on the Chrysler assembly lines in Detroit. That was a good twist to a fun 
day, and it was good to meet some new faces. Thanks to all who attended.
