So I am good to meet downtown after the CUTV meet tomorrow... but a bit
later like 12h30/13h is better for me... (are other folks going to the
demo? if so i'd ideally like to meet just like a few hours (at least 1
hour) before the 3:30pm demo that's at square vic so we could meet down
town!!!
what do folks say?
chime in or else you'll be getting phone calls from me!!!!! i really need
people's opinion on a few things here!
thanks
