double check before replying)

Hi NCLUG,

So somehow I got on a Microsoft Marketing spam list. They periodically send 
messages about local Microsoft events in the area. The message is included 
below(headers intact for the curious).

You might remember a few of us from NCLUG and CLUE went at handed out Linux 
CDs at the Microsoft Windows2000 launch event down in Denver a few years ago.

Maybe something similar could be done for these events? The W2K launch was 
huge and at the Buell(sp?) Theater. I'm not sure how big these events are but 
it still might be fun. There's even going to be one in Ft. Collins on January 
13.

An Important Update about Microsoft MSDN Events in your Area

Dear Matt,

MSDN Events, delivered by Microsoft certified presenters, are
half-day free events that focus on the best solutions for developer
professionals. We invite you to invest quality time in one of these

applications and services using ASP .NET. This tool provides a

authorization, threat modeling, and secure database access.

During this event, you'll also get guidance on important design
decisions that affect scalability and reliability by seeing some of
the work made available from Microsoft's Prescriptive Architectural
Guidance Group. The seminar is free but seating is limited, so
