Actually, my licence (CN one valid only in CN and Belgium; Swiss/Intl one
not valid here) has given me a new perspective. And along with the car...
This is a semi-serious question for user groups:
How many of you have a car and:
1. use it to drive to the homes of members to solve their tech support
questions?
(Does your group even offer such a service?)
(Hey, would Apple do that?)
2. actually think of carpooling folks (particularly to these who don't have
a car or underage junior members) to the next meeting?
I'm open for both (1) and (2)...
You know, that car you have could be put into real use.

For me I'd do (1) - last December a Dutch member had a problem (yes, expats
number aplenty here in Beijing) with her Cube and Jaguar + Apps - went there
by taxi. Hey, I though, if I had a car it'd be better - no fees (apart from
gas)...
(2) We're just hoping we have one of those mega-events either in August or
December (or both) in the local Mac community. (Expect a few hundred...) As
few folks here have a car (the only folks I know for sure are a member in NW
Beijing, the leader of the other group here (MacFans) and me)... hey,
wouldn't a car work out to be fine?
If you REALLY want to start saving the environment, it's better carpooling
than what the Swiss do - sorting out their bottles by colour. (Hey, it's not
bad, but how much emissions do empty bottles consume/prevent???)...
Just my thoughts gone wild - and public... ;-)
