The first-ever online get together for members of the Downey board will be held on Sunday - November 22 at 2PM Central Time. Everyone here is invited!
I will be hosting, using the Zoom meeting program.
If you would like to join in on the fun, then drop me a PM with your e-mail address. By the end of next week, I will send you a link/meeting ID number to join us. For security purposes, please do not share the link/meeting ID. I will have a virtual "waiting room" setup and will have to let each of you in. Don't worry if you can't make it on time. I'm hoping to go for at least an hour and you may come and go as you please.
Hope to see you then!

Just a reminder...
If you'd like to attend the Zoom meeting next week (11/22), just drop me a PM with your e-mail address and I'll send
you a link later this week.
Good response so far. Should be a lot of fun!

Just a couple of quick notes...
I've had about 15 people asking to join so far. In order to give everyone time to talk, I think we should
limit it to about 20 or so. If all goes well, we can certainly do more meetings in the future. So, if you
think you'd like to join, I'll take a few more requests. Just drop me a PM with your e-mail address.
It doesn't hurt to have a Zoom account (you can create one for free), but it's not necessary just to join a
meeting, as long as you have the link to join (which I'll be sending to you before the meeting). Sometimes
the link doesn't work and in that case you can go to Zoom (if you have an account) and simply type in the
meeting ID (which I'll also send). You can join with just your smart phone, but I've found the most stable
connection is usually a desktop setup with a webcam (you can still join even if you don't have video
capabilities, we just won't be able to see you. And, you can turn your video off and on if you wish.). It
really is very simple to navigate. All you need to do is show up!
If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to answer them.

Ed, if everyone is okay with it, I plan to record the meeting and share it here on the board.

It looks like we have more than enough that want to attend the meeting now.
I'll be posting some reminders here during the week.
My plan is to e-mail everyone the link on Sunday morning.
The meeting will start promptly at:
3PM Eastern - 2PM Central - 1PM Mountain - 12PM Pacific
In fact, I'll probably open it about 10 minutes early, just to make sure everything is working properly.
Hope to see you then!

Hey Paul, if there were others that REALLY wanted to attend, I'd be fine bowing out so that someone could opt in. I have an opportunity to visit someone socially-distanced who I haven't seen in awhile.
Let me know.

I just sent out an email with the Zoom link and other details to everyone who requested it.
If you think I missed you, please check your spam folder or just drop me PM. I'll be checking the board
periodically throughout the day.
Hope to see you this afternoon!

Thanks to everyone that showed up for the meeting. We went a little over 2 hours and could've gone at least 2 more!
I hope to post a link to the video in the next couple of days.
I hope we can do more in the future.
Thanks again!

very fast.

Add my name to the list of those who enjoyed yesterdays

Somewhere I think I have a USB webcam that someone gave
me years ago, I'll have to try and find it for next
time.

It was great to actually put faces to all the individuals that posted intriguing Q & A over the last 15
years that I was 'lurking'!! I had almost a dozen questions I was going to ask as soon as the rapid
fire Q & A's were slowing down, but I'll wait until next time! Thanks Paul! -Bill.

Awesome discussion, guys. I just watched the video on YouTube. If yesterday hadn't been the
65th anniversary of Shemp Howard's death, I may have been able to make it. Maybe next time.

The meeting was amazing!!! Thank you so much for hosting it, Paul, and thank you to everybody who came and everybody who contributed. I really could have gone longer, hearing the fascinating stories and sharing tips and techniques.
While I consider myself an amateur compared to most of you, it felt great to be able to sit and listen and occasionally hopefully add some useful content. This was a can't-miss event... I can't wait until we do it again!

It was a great meeting - especially getting to see what many of you look like for the first time. We're talking about doing it again. So I definitely recommend it to anyone who didn't get to join but was thinking about it.
