			This list grew out of a few emails I've sent to folks moving to Baltimore who are or might be interested in some of the same things I am. It's a work-in-progress, but is handier than rewriting the same email dozens of times.

			Please add sections and links when you get 'em. Feel free to comment on any items listed here. Also mention if any of these links are totally out of date.

			Negative commentary is not encouraged.
