I enjoyed that. Props to xrchz for organising :D

Enjoyed the cryonics discussion especially (haha, being the one to raise it and then sit back and listen to others).

Yes, that was fun, I look forward to the next one!

I'm in (well, near) Cambridge. Don't know yet whether I can make it.

Looking less and less likely, unfortunately.

Reply
[-]gjm15y00

Definitely can't come. Sorry.

I'm in Cambridge and I can make that time! I imagine there's a few LWers around.

EDIT: Damn, I can't actually do that weekend, sorry. I'm pretty much free any other time.

What about Friday 11th?

Reply
[-]Oscar_Cunningham15y00

Sadly no, but it sounds like most others are, so don't hold up on my account.

Who was there, in the end?

Reply
[-]Clarity199215y00

Me, Chris, CJ, Emily, Jonathan, Roman, Arnie, Richard, xrchz, and I think three/four others to whom I apologise for not remembering/catching their names (Tim? Another Richard?).

Sounds like a good meetup. Next time, I hope. (My wife and daughter are both unwell, and another commitment has me abandoning them both for most of tomorrow, so I really couldn't justify disappearing off for hours today.)

Given that there were around a dozen participants, it's pretty clear that it's worth having a next time.

Are these meetups still happening? Just arrived in the Cambridge area and would like to meet some fellow rationalists.

Reply
[-]cswetenham15y00

I should be able to make it.

[-]Richard_Kennaway15y00

Is this definitely on? I'm thinking of coming from Norwich (where I suspect I'm the only one).

Reply
[-]Ramana Kumar15y00

I'll be there.

Reply
[-]Zando15y00

Certainly interested. Will try to make it.

Reply
[-]Clarity199215y00

Sounds good, I should be able to make it.

I always see the "Cambridge" meet posts and get excited before realising it's Cambridge MA. This time not!

[-]PaulWright15y00

I think I'm free. The same time the following weekend is bad for me, but Sunday 20th is OK.

Reply
[-]Emily15y00

I'm in Cambridge and would really like to. Next Saturday may or may not be possible for me but I will pencil it in!

Reply
[-]AstroCJ15y00

Hm, interested.

Reply
[-]john-lawrence-aspden15y-20

I'll be there. Someone should make a sign with a paperclip on it, or at least have a laptop open and displaying one.

I believe this one is becoming traditional.

Reply
[-]Ramana Kumar15y00

can you bring the paperclip?

Being curious about the number of LW readers in Cambridge, I propose we meet next Saturday afternoon, 2pm February 12th at The Anchor (12 Silver Street).

Feel free to suggest a better time or place if this doesn't suit you.
