What, you can't type on the laptop and eat lobster at the same time?

I don't think that would be a problem. As for the scrolling, if you click anywhere on the regular page the calendar will not scroll.

I am cool to keep chatting for a little bit, but does anyone have anything else to bring up?

Aside from the calendar on the community news page, I think that's it for me.

I have some concerns that community participation seems to be focused on a limited group of people, myself included. I would like to involve more, but the big question is how.

The question of every meeting thus far the past month!

Not from me.

Must say though Gary, I am missing your posts about strange and unique stuff you find while at work. (I understand but still.)

Indeed. I think it needs to be done one-on-one. Hopefully the BB/BS thing in dev. will help.

One of my proudest moments living in Iowa...

No I don't know this kid, but I SERIOUSLY cried! AND... they did not overturn the ruling to allow gay marriage!

Thats been on my mind for while. We need some kind of question thread that asks why folks don't join in. I would not know how to word it though so folks are comfortable with sharing why.

This is a valid concern, and something we talk at great lengths about. A few points to consider.

- Forum activity is at an all time high.
- There are clubs and events almost everyday now.
- Are the people who are interested, aware of the discussion times?
- Some people like to be passively entertained.
- As a concept, clubs is still pretty new and has a lot of room for growth and improvement.

I guess part of my concern is that many of the more senior reviewers do not even participate, and they should know about the clubs or at least have heard about them. If they are not more involved, why do we expect new comers to be involved?

OH NO! I forgot to mention this earlier...

In an attempt to better accommodate a wider group of participants from the community we are going to switch things up a little bit with the CEC, starting this month. Basically, the second meeting each month will be in the daytime. I know this might exclude a few of you who attend the evening meeting, but hopefully it will add some new people who cannot attend.

CEC A: Will meet the 1st Thursday of the month from 7pm - 8pm EST
CEC B: Will meet the 3rd Thursday of the month from 12pm - 1pm EST

That would be great if it gets more people involved.
