According to statistics, Edinburgh has a reasonable number of LW readers. Currently no Edinburgh meetups exist for Less Wrong so we might as well arbitrarily set one in the near future and see if it could work out (if there are enough people who are interested in a meetup here).
Yeah we did meet.
A bit of a coordination failure in following up on it here, but anyway (and this is of general interest):
The meetup seemed to go well; discussed magic tricks, decision theory, psychology, etc.
We should be holding another one in the near-future (hopefully next week's saturday), though not sure what would be the best to arrange it at this point (due to lack of communication afterwards). Maybe we'll just make a new meetup post like this one..
Instead of a mailing list (for now), we created a Facebook group - though it remains to be seen if it'll be useful or not.

Date/time: Saturday 16th of April at 2:00pm.
Place: A pub called the Auld Hoose.
I would be holding a sign with "Less Wrong" written on it.
EDIT: definite time/place.
EDIT2: moved to main site (and changed article author :p)
