I don't think it a misuse. I've met a number of people through this group,
and at least one has become a permanent friend (as opposed to someone that
I've met at an airport once or twice).

No problem here... I think r.a.p is a great place to find local people
in aviation. If anyone else local is reading this - I too am searching
(slowly/cautiously) for a partnership at SQL/PAO/OAK.

Thanks,
