Uhh, guys. Went there; there were no markings other than the house number, and nobody responded to knocks or the bell. Roseti 1380.

Going to be slightly late, sorry.

Great timing. Coincides well.

So, it was a good time. The 4 year old lead us in a discussion of biomorphic freedom (she wants wings).

That'll be interesting. Knock yourself out. :)

Hopefully it won't be busy; also I'll have a green sign with LW on it for everyone to recognize.

I don't have the karma for this yet. Would you be so kind as to add it?

Meetup: Twin Cities, MN (for real this time)

• THE TIME: 15 April 2012 01:00:00PM (-0600)
• THE PLACE: Purple Onion Coffeeshop, 1301 University Avenue Southeast, Minneapolis, MN

Hi. Let's make this work.

Suggested discussion topics would be:

• What do we want this group to do? Rationality practice? Skill sharing? Mastermind group?
• Acquiring guinea pigs for the furtherance of mad science (testing Center for Modern Rationality material)
• Fun - what it is and how to have almost more of it than you can handle

If you'd like to suggest a location closer to you or a different time, please comment to that effect. If you know a good coffeeshop with ample seating in Uptown or South Minneapolis, we could meet there instead. Also comment if you'd like to carpool.

If you're even slightly interested in this, please join up or at least comment.

Folks, let's hang out and take it from there.

Indeed. I despise the culture of cheez.

Hi, I'm a long-time reader of Eliezer's various scribblings and I'm interested in getting a meetup group going in Minneapolis after we've had a few false starts. This is the post I'm trying to gather the karma to enable:

I'm a concert pianist and freelance computer guy for small businesses. My hobbies include indie art games and reverse-trolling A.T.Murray/Mentifex on AGI-list. Cheers.

Thank you; am aware of the danger of requesting karma. I figure it's worth it for the purpose intended.

I've now posted there as well.

I'm ~1/3 of the way there folks. Next 10 voters get a free funny cat picture. Limited time offer.

I don't have the karma to post this regularly. Grant me karma, my fellows.
