Hi all,
 
*HOW TO GET TOGETHER AT INTEREX*
 
*Jim Wowchuk* calls the shot.
 
I'm enclosing 2 of 9 emails i got in response to my suggestion
that i wear an Angles baseball cap to the Interx lunches so us
HP Netizines can rondevous and put a face on the name. (and jim
needs all the face connections he can make being from
DownUnder, ie can't see us US'ers as much as he might like)
 
this *will work* and be Waaay-Cool.  i was not excited bout bringing
attention to myself by wearing a cap in-doors, but.... if we
all do it we are *a power*.  we gain recognition and might in
the long-run augment the INTEREX advocacy group as a visible
power for change.  OH NO, that was  an ac*&^% flash back, i lapsed
back into my hippie street activist days.  we are not looking for
power here, just to rub elbows.
 
So.... read the enclosed Emails below and:
 
*WEAR ANY CAP AT ANY LUNCH*  and we'll recognize each other.  reminds
me of the stories in the bible bout christians (read catholics)
drawing the fish sign in the sand for recognition.  also, if we
really get into this, we can wear caps the whole time.  next year
we can have identical caps made up ahead of time.  my suggestion
for the text on the cap (we have a year to debate this) is:
 
HP3K's Kick Ass  (i sure i'm i can get HP to pay for those caps).
 
*SO UNLESS SOMEONE COMES UP WITH A BETTER IDEA IN 10 DAYS*:
*THE ABOVE IS THE PLAN*.
 
The reason for the "any hat suggestion" is because this is this
an international conference and not all countries have
baseball teams....
 
___________ HERE ARE THE EMAIL' I'M ENCLOSING ___________________

Hey, why not have everyone bring their favourite hat?  As you say, its
unusual enough for a single person to be wearing a cap indoors at lunch, but
a whole crowd...who could miss it?  Call it "The Mad-cap 'Netters Lunch"?
And a light cap is easy enough to stick in your Interex showbag each day.
Perhaps those doing booth duty, with out the need to lug 1,001 things may
care to bring a more glamourous chappeau!

How 'bout we all wear our favorite BaseBall hats?  The Rockies are
doing nicely too!
