[Regia-NA] # members for land grant

[Sudden Service #5]

    I am over in the Natick area for now, but am soon to move to the
Franklin/North Attleboro, MA area (I-95/I-495 intersection) I would be
interested in discussing forming a Regia group in this area, but can only
attend meetings on Thursdays due to work constraints at this time.
Pax,
Olaf
