Hello Carl,
Thanks for offering to address SVLUG. I'll be there and am looking
forward to your talk.
I've got a copy of "bash Cookbook" here on my desk as I write and have
worked my way through many of the exercises in the book. Thanks for
writing it (along with Vossen and Newham).
I presume you know about http://curiousreef.com/class/bash-scripting/
where "bash Cookbook" is the curriculum for learning more about the
command line.

Rick or I will be updating the SVLUG Web site with information about
your talk with the text you provide about title and description.
Thanks again.
