Thanks for the insight. We will NOT be meeting in DC though. We are the 
Northern Virginia LUG and there is a DC LUG meeting the needs of DC.

Parking blows in many parts of DC and metro isn't all the convenient or 
cost effective.

The meter maid scam around Verizon was the last straw. If you get a 
ticket, check the signs as the meter maids just write tickets and don't 
pay attention to the hours that the meters need feeding and length of 
parking.

I drive and street park at least 1x a week. So I am not a n00b
