PC group will visit the computer history museum at Moffett Field on 11 April.

Again,because reservations must be submitted 24 hours in advance, please e-mail your name and birthplace to me at carlmoyer@aol.com if you wish to be included. The cutoff time will be noon on Tuesday April 10. Do not hesitate to e-mail me or phone if you have questions     Carl Moyer
