Michael,

Thanks for the inquiry. Please remove the NFLUG listing from the
Ontario group. Apparently a well meaning but rather insensitive member
posted the request. We will discuss it as a group and I am sure it will
be voted down. We are a New York State group, located in Buffalo, NY,
which is open to membership by our nearby Ontario neighbors.
To list us as an Ontario LUG, however, is both inaccurate and insulting
to Canadians. Please remove that listing as well as the two BLUGs
and post NFLUG as a Buffalo, NY group.

Thank you.

Respectfully,

Dennis Eberl
