Wikipedia talk:Meetup/DC 8

Proposed: A meetup in Washington D.C. on Friday, September 4th at 6-ish. I propose Friday because one person commented that Saturdays are bad for him/her.

Let the comments begin!

That's just a shade early... if we're going to do a non-Saturday meetup, let's either go later on Friday (7:00 at earliest), or do Sunday. SchuminWeb (Talk) 03:35, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm fine with any day of the week, though Labor Day weekend might not be good for people. --Aude (talk) 04:37, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Oh, that is Labor Day weekend. Let's avoid that... SchuminWeb (Talk) 18:08, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

That week is good for me. I will be out of town the weekend of the 12th.--FeanorStar7 (talk) 09:16, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

How about the Saturday the 22nd?
--NBahn (talk) 23:02, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

It needs to be September. Any weekend in September should work for me, but I'm traveling at the end of August and can't do the 22nd. --Aude (talk) 06:46, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

ARRRRRRRGH! (runs around knashing teeth and tearing out hair) I was looking at the wrong month! How about Saturday, September 19th? Let me double-check: Yeah, that's right; September 19th (Saturday).

If the person who said that Saturdays were bad was an Orthodox Jew, Friday nights would be just as bad. Not knowing who it was or the reason Satursays were bad, of course, I'm just guessing. I'm retired, and not Orthodox, so days of the week don't matter a lot to me. -- BRG (talk) 14:44, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I was the miscreant ... what I'm saying is, there are a lot fewer plane flights in general than there were a year ago, and fewest of all on Saturdays, so for instance, from DC to Greensboro NC, the last flight out for me is 4:30pm on Saturdays and 8:00 pm any other day of the week. But it's really not a problem, I don't mind staying over Saturday night if you guys like Saturdays. Any weekend in Sept is good. - Dank (push to talk) 16:59, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I'll be out of town from Sept 11th to 16th, and I think Labor day weekend would also be bad. Any other day would work for me. Stu ^(aeiou)_{I'm Researching Wikipedia} 14:34, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Any weekend is fine for me. Kirill ^[talk] [pf] 16:32, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Generally open for the moment. Cheers! bd2412 T 13:50, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

As of now any weekend in September works for me. Kat Walsh (spill your mind?) 04:29, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

1. In trying to digest all of this --- I am going to propose Saturday September 19, 5pm, as that seems most agreeable. Let the objections begin. --rocketrye12 ^{talk/contribs} 05:43, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
2. I strenuously obje- oh, wait, that works fine for me. bd2412 T 06:13, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
3. Works for me also...--FeanorStar7 (talk) 09:11, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
4. Ditto.

5. Much better for me, I can't do the 4th as I'll be doing a lecture in Seattle. ⇒SWATJester ^{Son of the Defender} 14:28, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
