Welcome! This is a good bunch from the Linux community. I'm glad you're
attending the face-to-face meetings. Not only do you get a lot of your
questions answered, but you also get to "powwow" with faces that would
otherwise be known as email addresses.
I don't know about the Brandon meetings since I've only attended Pinellas
County's and Tampa.

Don't apologize. I gather you haven't read any of BS's posts :-)
Verbose is OK.
