If anybody from the P'lax·Forums·lives near LA and wants to meet up at a fun venue, this weekend is the TRW electronics swap meet in Redondo Beach. I'm meeting Peter the Thinker there, he's visiting the area now. Even if you don't meet up with anyone, it's a great event·to find·old & new·radio & computer parts and lots of other things to buy and keep in your treasure chest for dozens of years...

I'm targeting my arrival at 8-8:30. PM if you want to meet up and we can swap mobile #s.

    Too far from Detroit, but am starting a small business in home robotic in my area. Went to 4 this year already. They are few and far between here. I sell parallax stuff along with chinese electronics and parts relatted fo robots. Beats Ebay and no compitition yet. Mabe get to travel more if business grows. Loves Hamfests, my old school. My dream is to see robotics convention in California and Japan. Does anyone know of any parallax clubs in the Detroit area?

    I love things like this. It is such a good way to enlarge your circle
    of technically adept friends. Those friendships are just so important.
    Having many friends who are much more advanced than you are
    in a field is a great asset. Wish it had been possible for me to attend
    this swap meet, I'm sure I would have bought some junk and made
    some friends. smile.gif
