Hello NLRS land.
 
Just a reminder that Aurora 2010 is Saturday, May 15, 2010.    Bring 
yourself, bring a friend, bring a newbie, to Aurora 2010.  Here are  the details 
so far:

F, and immediately right again on Linden.  Enter from the  large parking lot 
on the east side of First Lutheran.

Cost:  $5 for the conference. Aurora is run as a neutral cast flow  event
