The Connecticut Computer Club has been meeting monthly (except July &
August) since 1976 (and maybe '75 - I was up in Saskatchewan until '82).
Steve Ciarcia started it and we met at a local library until about 1983.
Since then we turned it into a dinner meeting (everywhere from Denny's and
all-you-can-eat places to nice steak houses and Italian restaurants). When
Steve was an editor at BYTE, he usally brought a current project and was
always looking for ideas for his monthly projects (I led the HAL-4 brainwave
biofeedback unit design group), but everyone participates in various and
sundry ways. It's much more a hardware group with several engineers from
Prattt & Whitney and other local engineering shops. But, and most
importantly as acknowledged by everyone, it's almost always a good meal! <g>

BTW, Steve thinks I'm nuts for spending so much time on the 8 bitters!
