Yes, we would have that problem.  I think having a meeting every much would
be too much wear and tear and some of the TLUG administrators, especially
Joe.  The easiest thing to do then might to to invert parity, as you
suggest.  We might need to either hold meetings back to back in December and
January, then have the nomikai in odd months thereafter, or perhaps have
small, speaker-only meetings on a Saturday in January and March.
