[GreenKeys] An Introduction

[tony.podrasky]

Hi Evan;

Welcome to the group!

We have a lot of people who have a lot of knowledge
in this group - and they're willing to share it.

We even have a guy that launches balloons that hall
a bunch of gadgets that give reports and take pictures
from way-up-there (like seeing the edge of the Earth!).

About the only DO-NOT-DO is bringing up anything political.

UE,
K2EAA - TONY
NNNN
