This is just a friendly remind of Wednesday night's 7pm Geek Dinner at The House of Orient in Campbell, California. (See the original announcement.)

Please ping me if you're coming. So far I've heard from:

  1. Adam Kalsey (maybe)
  2. Jason May
  3. Johannes Ernst
  4. David Orchard
  5. Paul Hoffman
  6. funjon
  7. Allen Hutchinson
  8. Bill Humprhries
  9. Don Park
  10. Chuq and Laurie Von Rospach (unless Alaska Air sucks)
  11. Bill Lazar
  12. Mark Fletcher
  13. Jonas Luster
  14. James Briggs
  15. Mark Lentczner
  16. Ramon Felciano

Plus me and Tim is 19 so far. Did I miss anyone?

See you Wednesday.

Hmm, I guess I should get used to not using funjon for everything...

Man, that kind of thing happens all the time, and I'm as often the guy calling as the guy who gets called, so I can totally relate.

One other thing that works when the problem really gets hard is to break out the scientific method - get a lab notebook, the whole shebang. Nothing can withstand the observe-hypothesis-test cycle, at least nothing a puny computer can throw at you.

I've written about one omy favorite MySQL bug hunts here:

I can't make it (wrong continent) but it will be my 40th birthday, so I'd be grateful if you could get drunk and ramble about RDF for me ;-)

Argh! I am afraid I won't be able to attend the dinner on account of being buried under a mountain of unstable code. I am trying to dig out as fast as I can but I have a feeling I will be seeing sunrise instead of sunset by the time I get out. Sorry!

Rohit Khare and I would love for Tim to beat some sense into us. We'll bring a third geek with us because everything's better in threes...
