Atlanta / SE DUers

[ulysses]

rbnyc has suggested having regional gatherings as a way to get together and remember Khephra. We need to do this - it's been too long for those of us who've done gatherings before, and there are lot of folks we haven't yet met.

When do we want to do this? I'm probably going to be largely unavailable after early March, but I can still help plan it if it needs to be later. We should talk about where, too. Manuel's seems the obvious choice to me, especially if we get a good crowd.

So, sound off! Who can come and when?

1. Count me in

How about not on a Wednesday - it's West Wing night you know. Ah to have a Democrat as prez and his staff of unabashed liberals.......

2. it'd need to be a weekend, methinks

Thanks, Ruby! I'll put you on the list.

3. I am interested...

Pay in cash, and commute by MARTA to confound the men in black who will be photographing license plates. Carry folded-up protest signs (little words) with which to answer the half-dozen Freepers who will attempt disruption.

What else am I forgetting?

4. heh!

Every time we've planned a gathering here, the Freepnuts start talking shit about how they're going to come crash the party. Never seen one show up, though. :D

Manuel's is home turf.

Thanks, Orsino. We're getting a good-sized crowd.

5. I'd be interested.

Please consider a weekend for those of us outside the Atlanta area. Rush hour Atlanta traffic can be awful.

6. it'll definitely be a weekend.

Looking like mid to late February. Would that work for you?

I'll put you on the list. :hi:

7. Late February would work for me.

Valentine's Day is my anniversary so that day is out. I rarely come into Atlanta and I've never been to Manuel's. I'll need a good map and parking advice.

8. we can provide those.
