[games_access] Meetings and new blood.

[hinn at uiuc.edu]

Hey Barrie -- that's a great idea! I'll use that next time 
to announce our meetings. Yeah, sometimes I even get the 
meeting time mixed up because noon eastern isn't my time 
zone either! :) So I've written down noon on my schedule 
before.

There has been a few new people joining this list so maybe a 
few of you might want to join us in an online meeting? All 
are welcome! 

Michelle
