The meetup was a success, with a total of 4 people attending.
There's a quality of conversation among people who aspire to be less wrong, that is refreshing and energizing. To give you an idea of the range:
thinkthatthrough.wordpress.com - You are an atheist
3quartsdaily
Shor's Algorithm for factoring primes is squarely in P.
Lattice based crypto
It's totally ok to say I don't know.
Lob's Paradox
Sam Harris's Moral Landscape - and how he didn't clarify his premises enough.
Mathematics jokes ∞! = √2Ⲡ
Rationally Speaking
HPMoR
lesswrong on freenode
Selenium SST
Zero 7's Somersault
The Quantum Machine experiment by O'Donnell
just to name a few topics.
An excellent time was had by everyone.
And here is the response to that Sam Harris wrote to some critiques of his postion on how science can answer moral questions: http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/a/
