Anyone here interested in meeting up in Chicago sometime?

Post here if you are, not too far away from Indy and I'd imagine there's more interest for Chicago than this place filled with cornfields we call Indiana :p

I could maybe show too. I will be out of town most of next month but June or July would most probably work. :)

It might be fun. :beer:

Yeah, I am actually in the SW burbs too... unincorporated Downers Grove in the house... right next to Darien. Only a few miles away from Napersville as well. :beer:

I'd do a 21+ meet up, something about a computer nerd meetup without the presence of alcohol seems like it has all the makings to suck :p

No offense to the OP :)

Thanks for that website. Have you ever used them before? I might have to make an impromptu trip from Chicago to St. Louis and these guys are dirt cheap.

Well they've been doing their thing over in Europe for over 3 years now, IIRC, and my friend used them the first day they were open for business a few weeks ago. He said everything was great and there was a 30 minute stop halfway through the trip.

I'll find out for myself in a few weeks...I love Chicago and have a few friends there, so now I can visit for a few days whenever I feel like it :D

If I recall the last time this was tried, it was tough to do - no one from the city wanted to go to the suburbs, and no one from the suburbs wanted to go to the city. I think D&B was the preferred meeting place...

If any of you Chicago-ans (?) are watching the world cup, I'm in town Thursday and Friday if you want to meet up at a good bar and drink through the afternoon ;)

(If someone's open thursday morning, maybe even the USA game...maybe an english pub?)
