[nmglug] sudo broken

[js at jasonschaefer.com]

so.... I broke it! late last night, after a few beers, I added myself to the
users group with 'usermod -G users jason' which does not append to your current
groups. So I was removed from all groups but users. (includnig admin which is
what sudoers uses to give you root).
