Esther, I'm very sorry to hear you missed us!
You were in the right place. A small group of us were there! We installed ourselves in the back area. I arrived early and found Marei at about 6:30. The group got to about 8 people. It was an interesting group of folks. Some came an hour by train to join the group and many were very new to OS. For me, it was good just to know that there's an OS community in NYC that might actually start connecting (though others may be connecting already). We struggled a bit with how to have a conversation, but found our way with a little help from the OS process itself (and Marei!). The only conclusion seemed to be that someone should organize the next one, which would be in a couple of months. (There is, apparently, some traditions elsewhere that these Stammtisch happen on the first Monday of every odd month. No one there last night was strongly attached to that schedule, though, as far as I could tell.) I also want to acknowledge Marei's wonderful instigation to get this going here in NYC! Danka, Marei! So, for those that missed it, stay tuned. Something was started, and it will likely continue in some way. -Laurence On Mon, 5 Sep 2005 22:23:14 EDT, Esther Ewing <ewingcha...@aol.com> wrote: >I went but no one was there.
