We had a LUG maybe 15 or 20 years ago. Most of the members worked at the 
same place and it was difficult to attract new blood. Sort of like this NG 
we were all fairly proficient so there wasn't a lot to talk about. People 
would explain tools that they were working with but they were specialized 
enough that there wasn't common interest. 

I'm hoping Windows 10's demise generates more interest. They're using Mint 
which is a gentle transition. A couple of months ago they had transitioned 
a Windows 10 computer in the Makerspace so they should be comfortable.
