This is what Verity thought of her first taste of bananas. If she could talk, she would be saying “Oh, baby. I’m going to like this food thing.”
I am a communications technology pro by trade, an activist at heart. I care deeply about the health of my family and work hard to contribute to solutions to the great challenges of our day such as climate change and an out-of-control food system. I am a bon vivant, artist, writer and wannabe musician. I deeply appreciate my friends and colleagues and all the creativity and knowledge they bring. I hope I am always learning from them.

I am new to Drupal, but not to programming nor to CMS, Web apps, etc etc. I appreciate your examples and discussions of using various modules to extend Drupal. (Your daughter Verity is cute, too!)
Because I love B.C. and could’ve gone SCUBA diving, I had planned to come to your tentative Victoria meeting of Drupal users, but I have to go to Tucson for my work that week. Damn.
I agree completely with your politics by the way. The Iraq war cost counter is great! I was one of the few people who got off their asses down here to walk the streets and say NO to that invasion just as it was being sold to us back in 2001-2. It feels like we were vindicated — there were so many reasons not to invade Iraq and I cannot stand folks who say “we didn’t know then what we know now — b**shit Our press wasn’t reporting it for whatever sick reason.
By the way I tried your “contact” page but there is nothing there but a message “No posts matched your request” or something like that, so I am using this Comment mechanism to say Hello.
Perhaps I’ll be able to join you all for a future meeting. I live in Seattle, by the way, and make several trips a year to your lovely island.
Best wishes and if you have an email list for the user group would you be so kind as to add me?

Hi Russ,
Thanks for the kind words. Did you sign up at http://groups.drupal.org/vancouver-island or did you see the VIDUG notice on upcoming.org?
Love to meet up with you anytime you are in Victoria.
cheers
evan
ps i’ll fix the contact form. I was wondering what those log errors were. doh
