Having meet-ups here diverts a lot of time from all 12 or so Benton-ites, Eliezer if he comes, and Michael Vassar if he comes.
Perhaps a net cost of $2k or so in diverted time.
Which isn't to say we shouldn't maybe have more meet-ups; many have suggested we should.
Lucas Sloan, I, and one other person will be at the Holder's Country Inn for sure. Anyone else who wants to come can.
No invitations to Benton House have been forthcoming for the last couple months, so I thought we might do one located in a restaurant somewhere. I would suggest Holder's Country Inn, but if anyone else has any suggestions, I'm more than willing to change venue. I would suggest a meeting time of 7, but that is also amenable to change.
Edit: We're meeting at the Inn. I'll be out front at 7 with a sign saying Less Wrong.
