    "Chicago is my kind of town..."

    We're back in Chi-town for another ASHRAE Meeting and it looks like the weather may cooperate. We can't say it will be warm or that there won't be a lot of wind, but Chicago shouldn't be getting the two feet of snow it got when we were all in Las Vegas this time last year.

    In addition to another meeting, our website has some updates:
    • The meeting schedule for Chicago has been posted - See our Meetings page
    • The draft minutes from Montreal have been posted - See our Meetings page
    • New roster for 2011-2012 - See our Membership page
