Proselytizing for Linux Lite and Linux

[Coastie]

I am doing a little proselytizing for Linux Lite and hopefully reviving a Linux Users Group or Linux Special Interest Group in my area. 

"...  I have been looking for an active LUG or Linux SIG in Knoxville area since I left Mac OS X for Linux as my primary OS in Jan 2014. I also thought this Facebook group was dead too until I checked again today and saw some resent posts.  I am on the KLUG http://utklug.org/#page-top mailing list but have not been able to stir up any interest in meetings. I can remember when I tried Linux unsuccessfully before that KLUG, Knoxville/Oak Ridge LUG, and a Linux SIG in the East Tennessee Computer Society www.etcs.org/ were all active. Dave Hester wrote on 9/7/15, "A possible idea would be to setup a meetup.com group and just list this facebook group as the "homepage" That might attract more people. ..."
I would like to attend an active LUG or Linux SIG in the Knoxville area. I am sure if there is is interest in starting another Linux SIG within the East Tennessee Computer Society http://www.etcs.org/, it would be welcomed."http://www.facebook.com/groups/10197206670/
