We Welcome All Tech Enthusiasts
Thank you Bill & Cheryl. You did an excellent job as interim hosts filling in while I was indisposed. The story of my absences is an ugly one of food poisonings, that brought three of us down, for up to 48 hours. I wont get into the ugly details, but needless to say, I was in no condition to move from the bathroom, let lone host a virtual meeting. There were a couple technical issues with the YouTube video (i.e., some members were trapped off-screen) for which Bill & Cheryl had no control. The fault is my own. My apologies for not being available, but that’s the way it goes.
Some of the Topics from today:

- Hunters (Monkeypaw Productions, Sonar Entertainment, Big Indie, Black Mass Productions, Governor’s Court, Amazon Studios) – The series is inspired by a number of real Nazi hunters through the decades, but it is not meant to be a specific representation of any of them.
