Ok, makes sense.

Hmm, well, guess I'll have to wait till I can make it down there again.

Hmm, now here's where I could help both of us some.  I could ping the
CALUG (Columbia Area Linux Users Group) for those interested in a Key
Signing, and maybe work on the Baltimore lug some (some cross members
between the two).  If possible maybe we could arrange a key signing
meet.  Then maybe take care of getting all four lugs linked through you
(Philly Lug, Calug, Balt. Lug, Trilug).  Might be a nice thing to shoot
for.  Let me know if you are interested and I'll work on getting it
together in this area.
