Ok sounds like many are interested. If you don't drink then water is fine. I will post a reminder here going into the next week.

So that'll be 9pm in the UK, and 10pm for most of the rest of Europe if anybody needs to know (if I've worked that out correctly...)

By the way, central time is UTC-05:00, not UTC -06:00...

I will. Ill post the zoom info here like 15 minutes before

Probably just make a list of people that are interested and TG them; posting it publicly is a great way to get Zoom bombed.

And start the drinking session with the same drink.

On second thought, I'll make a freshly brewed coffee... hot and steamy.

I'll probably do it audio only, because I have no idea what will be visible through my camera. Will that be okay?

How would we find out who you are based on appearance alone?

We're not Mossad. We aren't the CIA.

Tbh the "what do you look like" thread is likely a risk in that regard anyway, so...

I always assume everyone takes a more extreme version of their views on here, and honestly the net is the place you can explore your ideas by taking said positions.
