MGDU8A: Want more folks attending, plus great events totally suiting you? Then make it happen! by doing these simple things: MGDV53: DON'T WAIT! RSVP YES NOW (which attracts many more people! and helps us plan). Even if you're a MAYBE, say YES (unless you're certain it's a NO, then say NO). MGDVHI: Put in your RSVP comment visible on this page: MGDVKC: Exactly why you're a YES, MAYBE, or NO. It really helps us if we know the details & URLs of your conflicting events & situations.

MFRH28: per Lucy's comment in here (https://www.meetup.com/OCAndroid/events/93146292/#event_comment-141368102) q(Regarding "MFOITP: Occurrences,"), I've moved it as she directs there plus renamed as there (shorter & clearer) but kept keyword "Occurrences", as this seems clear (don't know why Lucy didn't see that), clearly refers to the repeats/series ("Happenings" does as well, but not quite as strongly) and is appropriately generic (in contrast, suggested "Meetings" is not always the name sometimes also called, indeed presently called "Meetups" and could be called "Gatherings" or others); per explaining the data, would be verbose & maintenance-cost to title each datum so put "column headings" via "MFRHYB: Format:"; capitalized 1st letter of day of week; also made Lucy's next correction on "wording". MFRJ87: RE "MFOITP: Occurrences,", completed for the next 2 upcoming events; added all short-URLs; put 1st pic at top; updated heading; other small improvements; pst2012.12.28Fri1535.
