I'll let dr_st answer that question for himself when he decides to throw in his two cents on this thread, but I certainly do hope to see him soon.

When are we doing the next "big" NYC meeting, old friend ? Any chance of you stopping here to give a lecture or something like that?

Well, this was my fifth trip to the US overall, but only the first since December 2007. Out of the 5 trips, 2 (incl. this last one) were business (although combined with pleasure for sure ;)) and 3 were personal vacations. I will definitely visit again, though cannot predict when and where (nothing regular about these trips of mine).

On this trip I actually got to meet two forum members - ajkula66 and plympton. Both meetings were very fun. :D

@dr_st:

I guess you didn't get a chance to update your forum signature yet... :D :D :D

Indeed! Perhaps today, more likely tomorrow. (hint: I only want to update once). :wink:

I definitely hope to visit the Big Apple in the near future. When that happens, I will let you know. Last time, Brad was the only person who brought a laptop. This time, perhaps each of us should bring one!

Well , I live about 3 hours from NYC. Born in Queens so I know my way around. Maybe when you agree on a date I might be available to "share the moment" with everyone. My wifes sister still lives in Queens and we visit occasionally..............

I have met Brad here in Binghamton on one of his numerous trips up north. And yes, he did have laptops.. :D

We'll see,
Ron

So... anyone from the great northwest around here? I really like getting to meet people IRL that I have come to know from games or forums like these.



<--- Klamath Falls = Southern Oregon, bout 90 miles north of CA border.

I also had a chance to meet with Billp117 in April of 2008. I rented a motorbike and toured the great northwest with Bill on his Honda. We had one of the warmest days in the spring and since the Dali Lama was visiting we had more traffic than usual. Bill was a pleasure to meet.

I look forward to meeting other forum members. If I am going to meet ThinkPad forum members I try to bring, well, ThinkPads so if there is nothing else to discuss at least we have ThinkPads.

If anyone is nearby please don't hesitate to get in touch.

It's been too long. Let's plan something soon.

Brad
