[crw-talk] VA Demo

[John & Donna Griffiths]

James, thanks for your work on this.  Evenings would be a tougher time 
for me due to distance, since I live 50 miles north of La Crosse.   
Please bring this up at the next meeting so we can get a feel for how it 
will work.

Members, please think about if and how we can make something like this 
work and post your ideas here as well as discuss them at upcoming 
meetings.  The turning events I have attended at VA in the past were 
really well received by the veterans; and we had two lathes with several 
members taking turns turning as well as teaching hands-on with vets.  John
