KCLug - web site

[robert at kclinux.com]

I think those are some great ideas!  I was beginning to wonder why we hadn't 
recieved more ideas... then I read the last paragraph of this message.

So... if any of you have ideas but think that they may be dumb... and therefore 
don't want to post them to the list... you can email (robert at kclinux.com) me 
and I'll forward the ideas to the group for consideration.
