An allegrocon needs at least two participants.
Preferably with people who otherwise doesn't hang out AFK.

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

Something creeps me out with that statement. And it's blocking the divine nature of the post too!

I'd come to an AllegroCon in Vancouver, Wa... Looks like we actually have quite a few members in WA & OR.

A local radio station is having a contest. If you send them pics of your backyard, they will host a barbeque and broadcast fom your home. check out WZLX.com for details, Goalie Ca.

Ok, about timing: I'll be at Northwestern University until 17:00 tomorrow, I can try to catch a purple line to downtown Chicago around 18:00 (the schedule says there's one at 18:09), which I think should get me to Quincy station in 30-45 minutes. I can walk to Union Station from there, I think, so I should be there around 19:00ish.
Going back I'll have to catch a red line from Jackson, but that should still be easily doable.

Let me know if this sounds like a viable time schedule.

I can arrive at the OTC Metra (a few blocks north of Union Station) at 6:49 PM, so it should be fine.

I could drive from Toronto to Chicago in less time.1

Edit: Not only that, but I could listen to several Rush and King Crimson CDs along the way.

We asked the chef if he could double all of the ingredients, and he just laughed and said that wouldn't work, even if he kept the ratios the same. So it is now the official allegro.cc position that the measurements as listed in the recipe are important, and it shall be added to the membership terms.

I ordered two cups of Pepsi... which is a standard unit of measurement. The waitress knew exactly what to do; it was poured with precision. I, hereby, officially declare the cup to be the standard unit of all measurements on allegro.cc.

We also drafted up official positions for health care, dating, gun control, which sport has the right to be called football, where Iraq's WMDs are located, the proper spelling of coloUr, and a sorted list of each country from best to worst. However, the discussion of the Star Trek movie got so intense, we were thrown out of the restaurant.

Then we released Allegro 5. >:(

I, hereby, officially declare the cup to be the standard unit of all measurements on allegro.cc.

for(i=0;i<CUP*1000;i++)

cptrs = malloc(1000000 * (sizeof(CUP)));

To get to Brighton, drive 2.7 CUPS north, then turn left and drive another 1.5 CUPS.

When does the floor show start? Take it easy, it starts in 45 more CUPS!

They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas.
