> Rich said it might be useful to be able to show a history of speakers to the Houge reuse committee, since the meetings are free
> and open to the public. When I started scheduling speakers (starting with 3/2005), I went back through past Ephemerides to
> collect a list of past speakers, and then continued to append from there. Here is the list.
