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.

I noticed the proposed topics and wondered if anyone has volunteered to cover those topics or if that's a less formal, "let's talk about these" topics kind of list ;-).

it is the less format kind

it is the less format kind of thing. from previous meetups it was observed that it is best let things flow naturaly versus enforcing some kind of format or strict topics.
