I'm interested
I would be interested in that as well. I live in Cottonwood Heights, which isn't TOO far a drive. In fact, I'm in the middle of making a meetup right now... Does Marriott Library @ UofU on a Sunday sound good?
Salt Lake is quite a drive for me, but I can try and make it down for one.
What are the chances we can find a place mid way between SLC/Logan to get a meetup until we can grow things enough to need two seperate groups, maybe somewhere between layton and ogden.
Would there be any interest in holding these further south? I'm in downtown SLC, without a car, but am otherwise interested.
Did anything wind up happening with this?

Logan, UT meetup Sat 18 Jun 4pm
How did the meetup go? Did you play any paranoid debate? Even more specifically, did you find the scoring code helpful? If there's any simple way to make the code more helpful that I'd like to hear about it :-)
We met up on the 18th, and Mezik, and I and a few friends who were interested spent the afternoon talking about spaceflight, and the likely hood of us living to be able to visit other planets. With only three of us there for the meetup not much happens, but we are planning another one for next month, and will keep holding them so they become a regular event on campus.
Edit: Removed my previous reply and reported on the events of the meetup.

Plant Seeds of Rationality
You know what, after reading the comments here I was quite convinced that this post wasn't right (what with 'you need a lot of rationality to make a dent, a single link won't do' and all). Then, I looked at the welcome thread. There, you'll see the amount of newcomers that followed a random link and ended up here, then read the sequences.
Also, non-spammy relevant links are great for LW's SEO, bringing in further traffic.
For these two reasons, I think the post, and in particular the suggestion to post links in relevant places around the web is fundamentally sound. A tastefully placed link can change somebody's life!
I agree whole heartedly, I wound up here from such a link on a friends blog.
I wonder if the LW community could become a kind of civil and rational "Anonymous" Imagine a force devoted to raising the water level, in a polite civil tone, all over the Internet. Even taking 10-20 min a day to take one of these actions, would add up over time. A polite response that is constructive(I recall seeing a post on the topic of saying "you're wrong" in a polite way) manner with a link to a useful article.

Procedural Knowledge Gaps
Something else I've had to look up: how to convincingly dress like a grownup. (By which I mean less casual than t-shirts and jeans, work-appropriate, flattering, not looking like I just stepped out of a sci-fi movie or an art school.) There are some sites for female style advice I've found interesting and helpful (and edited to remove one I used to like that has gone off the rails).
I've found that for men, the style articles at http://artofmanliness.com/category/dress-grooming/ are an excellent resource, the authors of them often go out of the way to explain why particular choices are appropriate for particular situations.
