[vox] Can anyone help?

[Scot A]

Vincenzo,
Turns outs I was ill this weekend.
(Some freak 24+ hour bug.)
How would you feel about meeting at
Mishka's this upcoming weekend?
BTW, may I ask for a CD/DVD copy of
Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Debian?
Please let me know.
Namaste'
Scot
(I was briefly at the LUGOD meeting tonight.
I could not stay for the whole thing so I am
not sure if you were there or not.)
