Esteemed Ladies and Gentlemen,
   Frankly, I'm amazed that you've survived the two weeks since the
last talk. By now, you're probably frothing at the mouth, jerking
violently around the greater Boston area, limbs trembling, vision
tunneled.  In the early morning hours, I can hear you howling from
somewhere deep in the Fens, "NUBtalks! Nuuuuubtalks."

   Addiction is a terrible thing, ladies and gentlemen, and we're
here with your fix.  It gives me immense pride to present, on behalf
of NUBlabs, the second in a long series of NUBtalks this Sunday at 8
pm.  This time, the talks will be at MIT, on the first floor of
building N51, aka the MIT museum building at 265 mass ave. (google map
here: http://tinyurl.com/6ewmb5).

   To get in, just follow the handwritten signs, or call one of the
NUBs at 713.504.8802.  There's parking on windsor st behind the
building, and the back parking lot is usually OK after hours(but no
guarantees).

   But I'm getting ahead of myself.  For the newcomers to this list,
please allow me to explain why you're getting these emails.  What is
NUBtalks?  What the heck is NUBlabs? Why all the NUBs?

   NUB labs is everyone's favorite new Boston area smart-up.
Necessary Useful Beautiful, LLC is a group of handsome young
individuals dedicated to causing social change through technology.

   NUB talks is a series of talks by interesting people that NUB is
organizing and hosting.  Every other week, there's going to be a few
speakers, each giving a short talk on something they're doing that's
exciting.  It's an opportunity for us all to see what other
interesting things are going on around us and meet the people doing
those things.  We want you to come, eat our pizza, drink our beer,
hear the talks and just get to know each other.  An environment of
mutual excitement and interest is a beautiful thing, and we want to
cultivate it.

   By the way--the audio and blurbs from the previous talks is now
online at www.nubtalks.com  Check it out, give it a listen, leave a
comment, be web2.0!

   We have two fantastic speakers this Sunday, Clay Ward and Alex Hornstein.

   Clay Ward is one of the founders of bilumi.org (Buy It Like U
Mean It), a consumer advocacy nonprofit aimed at empowering consumers
to choose products made by socially responsible companies.  He will be
talking about his experiences starting bilumi and working with
volunteers to put together a large-scale project.

   Alex Hornstein(www.artiswrong.com) is one of the founders of
NUBlabs, everybody's favorite local smart-up.  He's involved in just
about everything, from solar power to teaching to surfing.  He will be
talking about Perfect Girls.

So, to summarize:
NUBtalks, this Sunday at 8 in N51(the MIT museum building).  265
Massachusetts avenue.

We can't wait to see you all there!
--Nubbie and the nubs.
