    Marso and Muad'Dib and the Alberts and Meka and Shakes...heck, there's not many here I wouldn't want to meet.

    Plus I always pick up the tab when I meet a Forger. Well, except in Chewie's case because we always hang out in movie theaters....wait, that doesn't sound right, does it? :unsure:

    I'm sorry that I don't know you all as well as I'd like. But I'd like to meet Storm. He's seems like an okay guy. Though I'd be concerned that'd he'd be armed. Not that there's anything wrong with that. :salute:

    I've met a few of the Brits. I expect to meet a couple of others soon... (hi Scruff, Sunshine ;) )
    I'd really like to meet Dan. I refuse to believe he's that negative RL. Plus, he's a bloody good photographer, and that's a talent I can always admire. :cool:

    I've met a fair number of people when I traveled to Ohio, London, France, Orlando, D.C., etc. One thing that always makes me smile is how many of them, lively and verbal online, are painfully shy IRL.

    I'm pretty much what you see online. Shy isn't a word in my vocabulary.

    I hope to do a NYC meet-up next year.

    I can't believe I left Demiurge off of the list. *grr* See, that's why I never make lists. I inevitably leave off important people. I'm sure there are others I've left off. Odds are, you know who you are.

    Some do. But it's amazing how normal most are. ;)

    I don't think it's a Star Trek fan thing. More it's an internet thing. I've seen plenty of Keyboard Warriors online who would pee their pants if they had to meet their online adversaries irl.

    The anonymity of the 'net makes some big and bad and bold. Online anyhow. It happens at many sites, not just Star Trek ones.

    The Alberts know they have an open invitation to Nashville whenever. Other than that, I'd have a glass of wine with CheekyMonkey and bury the hatchett.
    And Mewa in NYC.

    Hmm... I've met 3 'Forgers already. ;)
    Dragged them over here, actually. :yes:

    Anyway, of the ones I haven't met, I may someday like to meet...

    Nautica, POTN, Pylades, the Alberts, Forbin (and dog), thelurker (just don't ask me to drink!), Chuck, Dan, Summerteeth, Scorponok, Meka, Mandi, Nick, Goldeneye, Cheeky, Sheph - oops - Shadow, Async b/c of France, Chewie because I killed him, though his "practical reasons" for wanting to meet me will most likely throw him off the list (that's why Storm ain't on it), Bailey, Vandy, Dead Peon, FrijolMalo because he's near, though I don't think we'd have much in common (Jenna could very easily meet him since she'll be studying near him), eh, and some others.

    I think it'd be fun to go on some crazy exotic adventure with MartoksweetheartCassandraAuroraCaeliaPraetorius...

    She'd be a great travelling companion.

    I think anyone here would be interesting to meet.

    Most people who aren't interesting on some level either run away or get chased off eventually. :lol:

    Quite cool ones, too. Thank you.
    Chewie's actually quite harmless, but if you come out here I can chaperone if you like...:lol:

    I'd meet all of you. Some I'd plant with GPS trackers so I can send JDAMs. Some I wouldn't. I'll let you figure out which list you're on. :bergman:
