Last Meeting(Attendance 23)
Well, it's a holiday week, so attendance was down from normal, but still pretty strong. Steve Gentile came to speak to us about Castle Monorails. You can find his slide deck in our downloads section. This was Steve's first public presentation and I think he did a great job with it. I've already hit him to see if he'll come speak again.
