Exactly.  So, if you're reading this, and it still is Tuesday evening, people should go to Summer Slam!  Unfortunately, I'm in NYC, so I won't be there, but many other WPLUGgers and other folks will be there.

It's a great networking opportunity, don't miss it.  Here's the announcement regarding Summer Slam:

Summer Slam VI

Developers, leave your code at the office; DBAs, forget Oracle and SQL
for one night; CIOs, you can worry about the information technology
audit tomorrow. It's time for Pittsburgh user groups to unite! For the
sixth consecutive year the summer socials of many Pittsburgh user groups
-- including Java, .NET, Oracle, SQL, SharePoint and many others --
combine for a unique night of networking and fun. Learn about the
benefits and challenges of each technology through informal
conversations with peers. Enjoy free appetizers, raffle prizes and a
cash bar. Other participating user groups include Coding Dojo, IIBA,
IRMAP, ISSA, PES, PghBOUG, PghDW Group, PITCFUG, PMI's IT SIG, PRKMC,
STC, WPEAF, WPLUG, WSMQUG and WSUG.  Attend and interact with your peers
to learn the meaning of each acronym.
