[kwlug-disc] summary of first meeting for myself

[CrankyOldBugger]

I honestly thought that I was the only person in the KW area who liked
Tangerine Dream..  I have a handful of their tunes on a USB stick in the
truck; it's all I listen to on the way to work and back...  It gets me in
the right frame of mind before I hit the office.
