<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>Sadly, I've discovered that due to a lack of funds, I can't go to OLF this year, even for just a single day. I couldn't find a carpool to join, either.</p>
<p>So unless I hear from an angel rider or something, this will be the first Ohio LinuxFest I've ever missed, after attending every single one since 2003. I'm thoroughly bummed out, but that's the way things go.</p>
<p>Everyone, especially Beth Lynn and Vance, sorry I couldn't make it work. I'll try again next year.</p>
<p>Take care and have fun,<br>
-- Dave Ostroske</p>
