[Announce] [Discuss] MUG Big Book Swap/Giveaway

[James McQuillan]

If you had a list of books, what would you do with it?  Take orders and
bring the books in next month?  Agree to meet somewhere else to make the
exchange?  It's taking a very simple thing and complicating it.

I think half the fun is browsing through the books to see what's there.

Sure the books are heavy but I've got a little cart to haul them in with.
 It might take 2 trips but it's not that big a deal.

See you at the meeting.

Jim.
