[vcf-midatlantic] Intro

[Evan Koblentz]

> Hello- I've been asked for an intro, so here we are. I live in Philly and work for a very large local MSO in the city. I run a medium sized engineering team and we handle large scale messaging (SMS and Email) for the MSO. I've been to a number of VCF East Festivals and have loved them (the Ted Nelson festival and the recent Apollo 11). I have been aware of the forums and site for many years, but just decided to join the list. Like many here I have a decent collection of computers - enough that I have to pay for a storage at a local provider (climate controlled of course, I'm not a monster...).

Good intro! Welcome, again.

We're having a "Vintage Computer Festivus" holiday party this weekend at 
the museum. It starts around 10am Saturday and ends when the last nerd 
drops Sunday afternoon. Many of us are staying overnight. Interested?

 >> My collection ranges from Cannon Cats

Oooooh. We don't have one of those in the museum collection. Just saying. :)
