I think I started attending regularly at Stanford in 2001 or 2002. But
I remembered going once in the late 90s to a meeting small enough to
fit around a table. It was somewhere down around 1st and Trimble in
San Jose (I think I remember Aahz being there). I searched my email
and the first mention I still have was in the 8/16/1999 edition of the
Weekly Python-URL...

 * Local Python users groups are sprouting, and they seem to be called
   PIGgies!.  The San Francisco Bay Area has one, as does the
   Washington DC area.  Where will the next one crop up?
