             Perl Mongers is a loose confederation of Perl hackers,
             coders, and accidental programmers whose goal is
             to develop the social community of Perl - after all, it's 
             more than a language - it's a culture <em>and</em> a floor wax.

+        <h2>No Ordinary Perl Mongers</h2>
+        <p>
+            New York Perl Mongers was the first ever <a href="http://www.pm.org">Perl Mongers</a> group, 
+            created by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_D_Foy">brian d foy</a> in 1997 at the 
+            First O'Reilly Perl Conference (later to became known as <a href="http://www.oscon.com">OSCON</a>).
+        </p>
+
+        <h2>Regular Socal Meetings</h2>
+        <p>
+            NY.pm has "strictly social" meetings approximately once a month. 
+            We have been doing so for over 10 years, and you are warmly invited to attend.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            There is no set meeting schedule. Instead, the <a href="mailinglist.html">mailing list</a> is used to
+            arrange a convenient date each month.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            "Emergency social meetings" are also scheduled when Perl Mongers from out of town come to visit.
+        </p>
