I don't think so.  What's happening is that the calendar displayed on the
Hacking Society page displays the Hacking Society calendar as well as the
NCLUG calendar.  Literally, the calendar is subscribed to the NCLUG
calendar.

We could unify the calendars, but the problem then would be that people who
only attend one event or another couldn't just see one set of the events.
I think that's useful, particularly for NCLUG as we have many people who
regularly attend it but not HS.

That's up to Jim or Paul.  The HTML that I'm using on the HS page is
generated from the Google calendar helper, with the appropriate settings to
make it an agenda instead of a month view, and subscribing to the NCLUG
calendar.  Here's the HTML that is on that page, if it helps:

<iframe src="http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?showTitle=0&mode=AGENDA&height=300&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&src=dd53hpusfr630c4ncolouq86vk%40group.calendar.google.com&color=%235229A3&src=i11ad3vl4cipjp94efegauqmis%40group.calendar.google.com&color=%23B1440E&ctz=America%2FDenver" style=" border:solid 1px #777 " width="500" height="300" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
<br /><a href="http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/dd53hpusfr630c4ncolouq86vk%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic">XML</a> <a href="http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/dd53hpusfr630c4ncolouq86vk%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics">ICAL</a> <a href="http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=dd53hpusfr630c4ncolouq86vk%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Denver">HTML</a>o

In theory, I think it would be possible to use this HTML, but change the
key in the line starting "<br" from the "dd53..." one to the "i11ad".
