In Tampa bay?

Do you think that just one person working for a few hours is enough to
stuff 1000 envelopes?
If not, I don't know what you're thinking...  because pretty much not
more than number of Tampa localers showed up at the last meetup there,
and .. well.. A meetup isn't work.

You seem have odd notions about how much work, beyond babysitting
their pet article and windbagging on lists, that a majority of our
volunteers are willing to perform.
