IMPORTANT NOTE:
Due to 7 World Trade security policy, we'll need to know who's coming
(if in doubt, sign up anyway), so you will be allowed access to the
building. Please post your name on this page. Please don't forget,
as fighting with the security personnel could get ugly. Once, I saw a
guy get his hand pulled off...

meeting info
I had heard that meetups were happening at Fast Company. That's cool.
Sadly, I have to be at a town meeting this time around to "fight the power". Maybe next month. Are meetings on a regular schedule? Like every 4th Wednesday? What sort of a crowd do you normally get (number and type of attendee - coder, themer, etc)?
Looking forward to being able to come in the future.
See you there.
Just to confirm that I plan on attending.
