Okay, this is what I put together for a DRAFT for the "announce" list. Unless I hear otherwise (or suddenly hear that we *do* have a speaker), I'll wait until at least this evening before sending it out. I then intend to send it out sometime between this evening and fairly early tomorrow.
DRAFT for "announce" list (first line below intended for both Subject: and start of body of e-mail): BALUG: meeting 2006-02-21, and other items

BALUG 2006-02-21 meeting reminder
For our February 21, 2006 BALUG meeting, at least presently we don't have a specific speaker/presentation lined up for this meeting, but that doesn't prevent us from having interesting and exciting meetings. Got questions, answers, and/or opinions? Want to hear some interesting discussions on LINUX and other topics? Show up at the meeting, and feel free to bring an agenda if you wish. Good food, good people, and interesting conversations to be had.
