[Ggcs-presentations] Geeks on Tour Sept. GM and class

[Heinz Scheuenstuhl]

I don't personally have a pet project in mind and would just love to have
them talk on anything, so whatever the consensus is works for me.  I'd
suggest charging $20 for a class and giving the Gulds the entire amount, or
less 10%.  They've made a special effort to present with us this time
around and they do this for a living.

Thanks!

Heinz
