[ausev] Sustainable Shoppers' Ball, Dec. 9th

[Erik Bigelow]

I'll be there if I have to Flintstone my car down to the event! I
second everything Chris said. I checked the last one out too, and it's
a pretty big deal. It's bigger than I thought it would be - and really
cool.

Does anyone need a hand to get ready? Time to swap the tranny Mark?
Mine isn't actually back together yet, but as soon as I can wrangle
the motor and transmission back together it should go pretty quickly.
