Isn't it finally time for a Triangle area DU get together?

Some time between Thanksgiving and Christmas? I know we've lost some...hell, I left for a few months. But we need ideas - and action. Thoughts?

Doing a lot of travel these days (for fun), but I should be around during the middle of that period. It has been too long.

Admit I've been spending most of my SM time on FB and twitter lately. Would love to get together again.

There is a tsunami of stuff to discuss!

And my formerly RW Hubs misses you all too!

There might be some people outside of the Triangle who would come, too. Mira? Retrowire? Maybe a post in The Lounge for NC folks to take a look here? I know I don't always look in
to the NC group.
