travel plans and reunions

For you California people,
zammis and I will be in the Bay Area April 20-23 for her family reunion. If any of you would like to try and meet up while we're there drop us a line.

Also my family is having a family reunion in southern Indiana in July - I don't think I have any southern Indiana people on my friends list, but if I do, let us know and we'll try and visit you too.

Patriot Act abuse in Harrisonburg

A report of the FBI abusing the Patriot Act in their dealings with a Kurdish family in Harrisonburg, VA. - thanks to chuck_lw for the link.

I did some googling and could not find any confirmation of this - any of my friends with Harrisonburg connections know anything more?
