Naw  , that sounds like a good cause.  I was just for-warning incase you
were a moocher ;)   There have been others that want to take
SeattleWireless knowledge and profit from it.  While most of the Seattle
Wireless people do this for a living(Security/administration/wifi/etc)
it is kinda lame when people want these services for free.  The whole
Idea is to educate and benefit all.

Did you check out Metrix.net?  they dont have every wifi doodad you
could want, but they have only the good stuff, and pretty much every
thing you'd need.  I keep pluggin metrix, and am not affiliated with
them at all.  In fact, i havent even mentioned my company, just so you
know im not trying to plug some business.

I cant guarantee who'll be there on this wednesday but usually we get a
fun crowd.  show up, bring some gear, and hopefully some will be there
to help.

Hope to see you charles.
