We (The Hosts) will be at the table with a "Happy 10th Slashdot!" sign
1998-era boxed copy of Netscape? First-generation MP3 player? Collection of AOL software coasters? I've already got mine picked out!
No silly activities

We must score some sort of geek-cred for having an attendee with a user-number in the first thousand, right?
Look forward to meeting you, hope can make it!

We may want to reconsider moving this, if having it in a bar would exclude the under-21 set. I'm thinking that the Fox and Hound, which is only a few hundred yards from the Cubby Hole, might be a better choice since it's more of a restaurant and less likely to have an age limit.

I suppose it never occurred to me that too many of the young-uns might be interested in such an affair
I will be happy to give them a ticket to the big rock show and select a beer-serving establishment with no age requirement. Give me a day to review the options, and I will adjust the parameters accordingly.
Meanwhile, welcome aboard!

I would be ok with the new Pub at the Greene, or Dublin Pub, or even The Pearl for that matter. The Pearl is more of a music venue, but they have a nice patio and you can get in if you're 18. It is more geek conducive, but there aren't darts or pool.
Fox and Hound does not allow anyone under 21 on the premises as far as I know, but they have

Just throwing in my $.02, I'm still undecided because I know next week is going to be a rough one at work.

I'm signed up, should be good to go on the 17th. Can't say I have many geek items from '97, but I think I know what I'll bring.

LOCATION SET (Score:1)
In the interest of extending welcome to as many Slashdot addicts as possible we have changed venue to an all-ages establishment - one that still serves plenty of beer, 'natch! (And since it isn't softball season, they shouldn't be too crowded on a Wednesday.)
Glad to see we are getting some more sign-ups. Should be fun to meet a few new folks and trade some stories.

Sure, this is still south of town (read: close to the hosts

OK, well it will stop me from always posting AC.
I've been reading Slashdot for a while. For instance, I recall learning about the Beowulf cluster at Oak Ridge on Slashdot.

Glad to see the head-count growing. I will make arrangements with Fricker's ahead of time and ensure that there is adequate seating for all & sundry, including spouses, girlfriends, Moms, hamsters, etc. The more, the merrier!
Drop me a line if you have questions!

Looking forward to meeting you all, and joining the revelry surrounding the SD birthday. If I think of any other pertinent info, I will post here before then. I really don't use this MySpace profile other than as a pointer to my 'blog, (that no one ever uses) but it happens to have a recent photo
