I would agree that Emory is centrally located for Atlanta.  I'm not 
looking at moving the existing meeting, but having another in parallel 
as it seems there might be enough folks interested.  Folks like me who 
aren't going to drive the 70 mile round trip to Emory, but would 
certainly consider a round trip < 30 miles.

It does appear that there is some interest, although 5 bodies doesn't 
scream for a formal meeting.  It's likely we could plan to meet 
informally and see how things go.

Anyone else?
