Who invoked me? Oh, hi Boom. Good t'see ya represent, brother.
Tried to get a SoCal gathering for August, as you're aware, and hadda cancel for lack of attendance. The West Coast Gatherings area has a post from the host, and the resulting cancellation. There's potential for a munch in San D, as there was in LA, but clearly, LA seems t'have more folk.
If you folk EVER wanna actually MEET more of your own, y'gotta actually socialize. IRL. In Real Life. Get outta your 'burb and meet somewhere. Don't have t'be a gathering. Could be a munch. Munches are statistically more successful in LA than in the Siliconf Valley, FWIW.
There's so many of you, and so many excuses to visit LA (Disneyland alone is an easy one), that the locale could be a Mecca for 'our kind' if only folks there could get ONE location at which they'd meet. Even a 'dungeon' would work for such. Someone's gotta do the legwork t'verify the location and such.
Hopin' SoCal gets to where it can branch off to it's own event. Would LOVE to see that area get successful. It, like the UK, should have a major event, given the numbers. These responses show a fraction of those on the mailin' list for my LA event list.
Thanks for the ever-amusin' invokation, Boom-daddy!
