| shantorn | good evening folks | 03:09 |
| valorie | hi shantorn | 03:53 |
| shantorn | well hi there, how was your day? | 03:54 |
| valorie | pretty good | 03:54 |
| valorie | just got done watching an amazing documetary, Alive Inside | 03:54 |
| valorie | about the power of music for older folks, esp. those with Alzheimers | 03:55 |
| shantorn | thats great, this group is a small one, is the lug or the wa ubuntu users group very large? | 03:55 |
| shantorn | that does sound interesting, did they explain aproccess that would help them not deteriorate like so many older people do? | 03:55 |
| valorie | shantorn: it used to be pretty big, when it was Ubuntu PNW | 03:56 |
| valorie | then Ubuntu decided that it had to be state by state | 03:56 |
| valorie | we've never really gotten it off the ground since it was split | 03:57 |
| valorie | Salt tried for awhile, Linda tried, I tried.... | 03:57 |
| valorie | I'm really active with Kubuntu and KDE and gave up being the person trying to drive this | 03:57 |
| valorie | I will go to meetings, but I will no longer set 'em up | 03:58 |
| valorie | my own dad is in a nursing home, and I visit him every other night | 03:58 |
| shantorn | thats to bad it was split | 03:58 |
| valorie | and that sort of sucks up my time and energy now | 03:58 |
| shantorn | thats so much more important! | 03:58 |
| shantorn | its an effort well spent i would have to say | 03:58 |
| valorie | yea, we try to still stay involved with Portland folks | 03:59 |
| valorie | they usually come up for LFNW | 03:59 |
| shantorn | i live in longview, about 50 miles from portlandd | 03:59 |
| valorie | and some of us try to go to OSCON | 03:59 |
| valorie | my son-in-law is from Longview/Kelso | 03:59 |
| shantorn | i sued to attend oscon but 1200 bucks or more is hard to come up with now that i am disabled | 04:00 |
| valorie | I only went to staff the table | 04:00 |
| valorie | no way will I pay that money | 04:00 |
| shantorn | and now just the vendor hall is 50 bucks, thats just rude to charge for people to advertise their stuff to me | 04:01 |
| valorie | bizarre | 04:01 |
| valorie | I've not gone for a few years | 04:01 |
| valorie | too corporate | 04:01 |
| valorie | lfnw is still awesome though | 04:01 |
| valorie | SeaGL was pretty good too | 04:01 |
| valorie | Scarlett came up for that, and we shared a table | 04:02 |
| shantorn | i would love to attend that, i listened to LAS telling aobut it, sounds wonderful | 04:02 |
| valorie | #lfnw | 04:02 |
| shantorn | LFNW that is | 04:02 |
| shantorn | yes | 04:02 |
| shantorn | well thanks for chiming in for a few valoq | 04:06 |
| shantorn | valorie, * | 04:06 |
| valorie | I'll see you at LFNW I hope! | 04:07 |
