I'll definitely be there. I just e-mailed all of our members to invite them out Wednesday morning for the big "event."
Who else is in?
Great! I also posted this on FB and Twitter, and hopefully others will, too.
count me IN.
Just a reminder, as I mentioned this in last month's comments post about the online stream:
I have an appointment in the morning so I will be absent for at least an 60-90 minutes after the meeting begins, but I'll be here for the beginning drum roll.
I'll be on...do you have other moderators?
This is a good question! I figured Brad would be up for this, too.
Let me know what help you need.

I'll definitely be there. I don't know how much moderation we'll require. I'm expecting more of a live peanut gallery. If someone has something interesting to say about the meeting, or wants to flesh out some background, or has a question, or takes issue with a statement made...you've got a place to do it.
This might help make it easier to follow:
