If by "virtually" you mean "not driving because I took the train" I'd 
happily pick you up at Union Station. :)

But if you were thinking more along the lines of a webcast of some sort, 
I think our informal meeting structure and the layout and acoustics of 
the venue wouldn't lend themselves well to that.  Amidst poor audio the 
most striking moment would be when dessert arrives, and you'd become 
insanely jealous when you see the excellent selection of pies they serve 
up at Du-par's. :)

But if you're ever in the 'hood on the first Thursday of any month we'd 
love to have you.

And of course that goes for anyone else on this list, and that includes 
picking you up at the train station.  Just let me know in advance.  My 
office is only a few minutes from Union Station, and the venue is just a 
couple minutes from our local Metro station, so if anyone wants to 
arrive via train I'll happily be your solution to the last-mile problem. 
We don't have nearly enough trains in California, but the few we have 
are pretty nice.


PS: As for virtual meetings, I've been thinking our community might 
benefit from monthly online get-togethers vis Google Hangouts, and it 
turns out Todd Fabacher has been thinking alone the same lines.  We're 
working together to arrive at a schedule that can work for the greatest 
number of time zones and our own ongoing commitments, but it looks like 
we'll kick this off this month.  More info to come as we work out the 
details....
