The Great Chicago Picnic of 2007

[Deefuzz]

So I had taken a break from MacRumors for a while as I had my hands full elsewhere, but I had completely forgotten about this. I was out of town at the time anyways but I was wondering how did it go?

Anyone have any stories? Recap? Pics from the event? Was it a success? Plans for more meetups in the future?

Yeah, WTF happened to this?

The key is for one or more people to step up and be persistent in banging the drum, organising and bringing people together. It takes will-power, single-minded commitment to following through to do something for everyone, not vague plans... a smidgen of consensus and a bit of hype.

Check the OP's sig... now someone should be firm and pick up the reins and say 'this is what we're doing, see you there' and do your damndest to make it happen.

Note: From experience, you can count on half the people who will say they'll 'definitely' be there, not attending.
