As one of the miffed SESSPOOLE members I'd like to thank Glenn for

a) the rapid to/fro email blitz with myself and other SESSPOOLE
   members (actually we aren't all that formal yet :-) that has clarified 
   his position

b) for taking the time to put together a well thought out argument in this
   post regarding the future of AUUG and of the formation of local
   chapters

Personally I think he is onto something here and I look forward to any
proposals that his sub-committee come up with. It should make an interesting
debate ;-)

	ian (who enjoys guzzling/gluttony with SESSPOOLE but who
	     is also open to suggestions as to what else we can do .....)
