For the record, you can do that trip on public transit, it's just really tedious (#17 from downtown SC to I forget the VTA bus number in SJ to BART in Fremont). And you wouldn't want to need to take it back that night.
Wait, I just realized that I parsed that as you looking for a carpool, whereas you may have actually been suggesting another meetup down there. Well, either way, there's some information; the worst it can be is useless. :)
Looked it up on google maps and it said the trip via public transit was over three hours. If the meetup starts at 7 that means I'd either have to leave quickly or get home very late.
Google maps also claims that the car ride is only an hour and a half, which is much more doable, but of course if there are people in my area it's always more convenient for me to travel less (:
Last month, about 7 people showed up to the Berkeley LW meet-up. To build on that success, we will be meeting on Saturday, October 9 at 7 PM at the Starbucks at 2224 Shattuck Avenue. I'll be there with a sign saying "If you read Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, come talk to me." Last time, we chatted at the Starbucks for about an hour then went somewhere for dinner, so don't feel like you have to eat before you come. Hope to see you there!
