[Baypiggies] Thursday January 8, 2009 is also Free Engineers day!

[Charles Merriam]

I thought I would point out that Thursday is also "Free Engineers
through SVEC" day at the Tech.   Those with forethought can show up
early, catch the "Leonardo da Vinci" exhibit for free, and then attend
the meeting.

Life is grand!
