[Lvlug] Fw: [lugip] May be of interest: Make:Princeton - free Arduino micropressor lab/class Wednesday night

[Stu Anderson]

I am not a member of the make:princeton group so I don't know anything 
about it, but schedule-permitting, I'll try to go.  The meters should be 
free after 7pm, if I'm not mistaken.  I can't offer to carpool because 
I'll be in Princeton already.  And I wouldn't recognize anybody as I 
haven't been to any meetings (been here in princeton) but feel free to 
let me know if you're coming.
