  The importance of London to the rest of England is greatly exaggerated, and 
most of the UK is talking about seceding from London ;) That said, however, 
the plugfest does sound like a pretty good thing to be a part of. The last one 
i was at was good fun. And yes, now does seem to be a sensible time for us to 
show our faces again.

  Cooperation between the two communities would seem sensible anyway, and the 
plugfest no bad venue for that ;)
