Click For Summary
The discussion centers around the emergence of virtual social networks from interactions at Physics Forums (PF) and the potential for in-person meetups among members. Participants express a desire to connect more deeply, with some already forming friendships that extend beyond the forum. There is a general sentiment of caution regarding sharing personal information, yet many feel comfortable enough to exchange real email addresses and consider members as friends. The idea of organizing regional meetups, particularly in the North of England, is proposed, with playful suggestions for club activities and leadership roles. Members share experiences of past friendships formed through online interactions, highlighting the unique bonds that can develop in forum communities. Overall, the forum is viewed as a safe and enjoyable space for social interaction, with a mix of humor and camaraderie among participants.

There's another forum I post at whose members are predominantly from the LA area and I met up with a big group of them once when I was still living there. That's about it. I know there are at least a couple of people here that live in the Bay Area. I'd make a good tour guide for your Disneyland trip, since I used to work there. I'm not familiar with the Florida parks, though, so if you're going there, I'd be useless.
