Post in this thread if you live in Santa Barbara County
I attend University of California, Santa Barbara, and live on campus.
I'm in Isla Vista
Awesome, I'm Mike, I'm a physics grad at UCSB
I'm having some trouble responding to your PM, so:
I'm working for prof Richman, though more "trying to get up to speed" than "working" right at the moment. I just had Nelson for my particle class the last two quarters -- it was a lot of fun.
So I was thinking if Hal was up for it the three of us could grab some dinner in the next week or so -- that work for you?
Also: LW SB group
Sounds good to me.
I live between Goleta and Santa Barbara. I am 54.
Awesome, if you and jimmy are up for it, maybe we could all get some dinner in the next week some time
also, just created a Less Wrong in SB group on Facebook
Post in this thread if you live in Orange County
I live in Lake Forest
I could catch a train down to OC pretty easily.
I'll be at Chapman University in Orange for 6 weeks this summer. I imagine The city of Orange is in Orange County, but correct me if I'm wrong.
yes indeed it is =)
it's about half an hour north of lake forrest, if memory serves.
Which six weeks? That might be a good time to shoot for a so-cal meetup
June 29 to August 7
Irvine, CA here
EDIT: I now live in Palo Alto
I live in San Clemente, but I'd be willing to drive anywhere in Orange County for an occasional meetup.
I'm in pasadena
I've started a meetup group for LessWrongers in Southern California
Playa del Rey, by the beach just south of Santa Monica and West of LA proper.
Post in this thread if you live in the Bay Area.
I live in San Francisco.
I live in Berkeley.
I live in Redwood City, at least for now.
I live in Marin County.

Palo Alto (it might technically be EPA)
I'm in Palo Alto
I live in Davis.

Hey there. I think our current closest regular meetup is at Tortuga in Mountain View, which is to say -- miles away from you. If you're inclined to try hosting your own meetup, I strongly suspect you'd at least hear from some UCSC folk.
Post in this thread if you live in New England
Post in this thread if you live in Massachusetts
I live in Bedford, MA
I live in Amherst, MA.
Should we also be posting how mobile we are? I rely on the bus system and the goodwill of my roommate to get around. I couldn't attend an event in, say, Boston unless there was carpooling.
I live in South Deerfield, MA and work in Northampton
Contact me at EconomicProf@Yahoo.com
Cambridge, MA. Rarely venture beyond Boston metro area.
However, I'll in the Pioneer Valley on Apr. 17-19, if anyone is interested in a meetup that Sunday (19th), say NoHo or Amherst.
The bus is less friendly on weekends, but I could get as far as Amherst Center (and back) without spending unduly long waiting for multiple buses.
Medford, MA. Enjoyed the OB meetup on the MIT campus, which was convenient since I work across the street. I'd be up to renting a car and driving to Amherst or New Hampshire for a meetup on a weekend, especially if there was time for hiking.
I live in Plymouth, MA during the summer, and am able to get to Boston.
I attend the University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH, and live on campus.
I am in Massachusetts about every other weekend on average, and I considered posting this in "Massachusetts." I could easily make a MA meetup.
New Haven, CT. I go to Boston and NYC sometimes so a meetup either place might be possible. Or here as the in-between spot.
West Hartford, CT.

Post in this thread if you live in the midwestern USA or nearby areas of Canada, ideally roughly within a day's drive of Chicago.
EDIT: For anyone in this area, Penguicon may be a good location for a meetup. It's a mixed sci-fi/open-source/general-geekery convention in the Detroit area, and just might possibly have at least one guest that LW readers would be interested to meet. I probably won't be there this year, though.
Chicago, IL.
Detroit, MI.
I'm Detroit...ish area, and actually I am planning to go to Penguicon this year
