I can't think of any 14:56:39 <ohiojoe> sounds good 14:58:25 <ohiojoe> well, we are coming up to the top of the hour.. is there anything else before we wrap up? 14:59:46 <jihpringle> is our next meeting the 1st of March? 15:00:01 <ohiojoe> yeah, March 1st 15:00:18 <ohiojoe> I should start announcing that here, now that I think about it 15:00:53 <ohiojoe> #info next meeting will be Thursday 3/1/18, 2pm EST/ 11am PST 15:01:07 <ohiojoe> #endmeeting
