[Penguicon-Concom] SMOS Dinner 4 July

[Matt Arnold]

Jeremy,

We have a person in charge of that. The calendar is available as an
unfortunate fallback measure when things don't go as planned. I
strongly agree that we should use the communications channels that
reach people, and that is the instruction I have given. I don't think
anyone is saying otherwise. I had a conversation on the phone with
Allison this evening, who is our Social Director. This time fell
through, but we will do better in the future.

-Matt
