[Chicago] PyCon practice day (next week)

[Carl Karsten]

Just noticed the 7am - hope no one shows up then :)

to be clear - the current plan is to be just like a normal ChiPy meeting: 7pm 
till we are done,  bring your friends and loved ones.  I'll be there much 
earlier to get AV stuff setup.

Assuming I get the OK from Crown.
