<font face="Souvenir Lt BT">Hi...<br>
I<br>
wonder if it's possible to have the Robotics Group start-up times
to, say, 1900 hrs or to 1930 hrs on the meeting days.?<br>
Some of us are working or are at the University and need to go
home to have a meal with the family or, famished, just want to sit
down, or 'powder one's nose,' and eat before going to meetings at
1830 hrs.<br>
Regards, Robert (Bob) Walker ZL2ROB.<br>
