How many PowerSwitch posters have you met in real life?

Some-one commented a while back that PS was a civil place to post because so many of the posters actually knew each other outside of PowerSwitch.

So I thought this poll might be interesting.

I've never met any of you.

I'd like to.

I could possibly have in a previous London life I suppose.... 8)

Hey, that's good. Out of the 7 voters so far I've met more than anyone else :D. Bet it won't last though!

I've only counted the ones I know I've met...there might be some more of my CAT coursemates out there masquerading behind assorted noms-de-guerre...

I clicked 6 because I suspect that I have chatted to several at the last two Oil Depletion events in London.

I voted 6-10, but I can't be too sure because I've always been really drunk at the time.

Would like to meet lots more of you, that's for sure!

So when's the party at your place then HWH?! :lol:

Powerswitchers could always have a funny handshake system.
Enough said, you know what I mean.

That's not very PC for a PO place Andy..... :twisted:

The problem with inviting you lot all the way here is that I'd have to be polite and stay up talking. I'm not a sort of "statistics facts and figures keep up with everything that's happening" sort of person.

So, I wouldn't have the energy to keep up with you lot and your bloomin' enthusiasm. 8)

Me? I've met none!

It would be fun to be put in a roomful of PS-ers though and to try to match people to names. I'm not sure we'd be all that good at it. Sort of like meeting some-one you've only spoken to on the phone - they never look like they sound!

That, I'd like to see :lol:

Living in London, and attending a couple of the PeakSpeak events, together with various APPGOPO talks and the occasional pub meet up. I'm sure I've met a lot of PSers.

I did the 21+ thing as I've been to two Peak Speak events - or is that cheating?

I'd need to be paid a lot of money to dress like this!

I have shared a glass or two of local cider with Biff. What a nice man.

Haven't had the pleasure of meeting any others as yet.
