But I'm concerned about us wasting energy (fossil fuels) and want to
see more new LUGs that don't complement other LUGS and are located so
as to minimize commute distances to get to meetings.  In other words, I
think that Azusa (Best city from A to Z in the USA = AZUSA) should
have a "full service" LUG.

That brings up another idea.  Should sgvlug try to get people to start
new LUGS in adjacent areas?  Someone once tried to start one in Glendale
but didn't succeed.
