On Saturday, New Haven residents, people who live in other nearby assorted Havens, and anybody else who would like to trek out here are welcomed to a Less Wrong meetup in thomblake's and my home at noon(ish). The address is thus:
173 Russo Ave Unit 406
East Haven, CT 06513
I will make food; if you plan to come and wish to submit food-related requests, say so.
