See ya'all there... I'll park at the very top floor of the parking garage just next to the Metreon... I'll try to get there early (or on time even), but I think if we all look for Tony and people with their trusted empegs in hand, we'll find eachother in the arcade... We should probably snag a table by the video bowling...

I'll be there also. So just to be sure, it's 7:00 PM at the Metreon arcade...

Too bad, though your car may thank you for it.

I should be there for at least a bit of time. I'll be the red prelude parked on the top floor closest to the metreon. Nothing about my install has changed in the last 3 years though, so it'd probably not that exciting to see.

And to answer my own question... We ate there! Thanks guys, I had a great time. We closed out a restaurant AND a bar. Fascinating conversation as always. Good to see you all! I think Tony took some pictures with my camera... I'll post them tomorrow if so. G'night!

OH... and Jon... I'll be expecting emails about all the cool secret SF stuff you seem to know about! =]

Yeah it was very cool seeing everyone (in particular Tony, whom I've not actually MET before -- which is amazing to think of) ... As I posted on the Programming list, I'm going to officially fix soup views next weekend after getting jazzed about jEmplode again.

The mini meet was more of a maxi meet!

Great fun hangin out and chatting. I always walk away from these meetings with a list of things to do and a bunch of things to potentially buy. Love it.

Thanks y'all!

Yes, thanks all, it was a fun evening. Dittos, Mike, was very cool to meet you.

I got home safely at around 4am, so I'm running on very little sleep this morning, so I'm not going to post a long report here. Just saying hi and thanks.
