making light by the Bay

[sergebroom]

Interested in making light in the Bay Area?

There’ll be a gathering of Fluorospherians and other bloggers in Oakland on Saturday, December 20, starting at 5pm. So far, the group includes Lizzy L, Kathryn from Sunnyvale, David Goldfarb, Tim Walters and yours truly. Alas Dawno would have liked to come, but her son will be back from Iraq at about that time. (My best wishes to you and your family, Dawno!)

The gathering will be held at the Pacific Coast Brewing Company, which was the site of a similar encounter year. As you can see from the directions, it’s a short walk from BART. (Possibly a longer one back to BART, if libations wind up being too liberal.)

Should you be interested, just drop a note here (or write directly to me). Let us know whether or not you'll be accompanied - by an orchestra or otherwise. If you can’t make it until after dinner, that’s OK. We’ll probably stay until they throw us out.

I really wish I could come, Serge - my flight back from my visit to the east coast for my son's 're-deployment' from Iraq lands in San Jose at 9PM on the 20th and I know I'd be having much more fun with you and the west coast ML crowd at PCBC than I will sitting in coach all day. Raise a glass of something hearty for me, won't you?

We certainly shall.
Happy Holidays!

Thanks. To paraphrase the djinn in The 7th Voyage of Sinbad, we shall try, we shall try.

In case our own merriments have ended prematurely, it might be a good thing for you to call the pub and ask if the weird glowing people are still there. We wouldn' want you to come all the way for nothing.

Lizzy told me about this, and I'll try to make it.
I also know and am known by David.
