  no, that's ok, it's all under control.  just to refresh peoples'
memories, we're talking about this:

http://candyandaspirin.blogspot.com/2009/12/social-media-101-building-better.html

that would be happening this evening at the huether in one of those
upstairs areas.  the rationale is that cheryl is doing this for a
number of long-time ex-colleagues who were recently terminated and she
wants to help them by giving a tutorial on how to best build your
online profile for the job market.

  her *main* audience is her ex-colleagues but if you know anyone who
might specifically benefit from this, let them know and have them
contact cheryl.  i realize it sounds selective, but she doesn't want
to throw it wildly open to the public, but if you or someone you know
would benefit, drop her a note and see if there's still room.

  also, corporate recruiters might be interested in attending since,
let's face it, you'll be hanging out for an hour or two with a bunch
of very bright techie people who are now looking for work.

  anyway, it's this evening so there's not a lot of time left to
decide.  beyond that, you can take it from there.  i believe cheryl is
supplying the munchies and nibblies for the evening as well.  you
probably have to buy your own beer.
