 n&#13\;\nJames is a Technical Evangelist for Flex at Adobe and Adobe's J
 CP representative to JSR 286\, 299\, and 301. Much like his love for cli
 mbing mountains he enjoys programming because it provides endless new di
 scoveries\, elegant workarounds\, summits and valleys. His adventures in
  climbing have taken him many places. Likewise\, technology has brought 
 him many adventures\, including: Pascal and Assembly back in the early 9
 0's\; Perl\, HTML\, and JavaScript in the mid 90's\; then Java and many 
 of it's frameworks beginning in the late 90's. Today he primarily uses F
 lex to build beautiful front-ends for Java based back-ends. Prior to Ado
 be\, James built a rich marketing and customer service portal for Pillar
  Data Systems.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n----------&#13\;\n&#13\;\nPJUG meetings st
 art with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provide
 d)\, followed by the featured speaker\, then Q&amp\;A\, discussion\, som
 etimes a drawing to give away swag. :)&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThough we like kno
 wing how many people to expect\, you don't *have* to RSVP\, on Upcoming 
 or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!&#13\;\n&#13\;\nMany people also
  go for a drink and further discussion following the meeting\, at a loca
 tion determined ad hoc (more often than not\, Jax on 2nd).&#13\;\n&#13\;
