Birkir, I did not realize that you lived in the NC Research Triangle area.  Are you involved in the NFB of NC at all?

Haha, we have to fly a few thousand miles to meet though, just so I can say that we had to do that, *grin*.

And sure guys, lunch sounds awesome.

Take care,
Sina

For those attending CSUN, should we have a meet up, say for lunch on
Friday March 18th?
I have my presentation at 4pm so we could have lunch and then I could
do last minute prep or work on other things.
(my presentation is on tests to compare screen reader functionality
cross-platform, some research I did in the fall).
Sina, I will shoot you an email (or you can email me), would be fun to
meet up before then, seeing as we live 3 or 4 miles apart (I live in
Brier Creek, close to the airport).
Lloyd, it would be a pleasure to meet you.
Thanks
