_raises hand_ I’m not in TN, but I am in what’s counted as the Tennessee Valley, and I live about an hour south of Nashville. I’d be up for a gettogether… ---

Let’s see…I believe I’ve heard of Joelton. I keed! When I was teaching school we always depended on the ice and snow on the big hill in Joelton to get us a snow day! **Cub Mistress** , I want to hear how you like your work! We saw **CosmosDan** a couple of months ago. I hope that he will come. Do you know who I would really like to meet? **Skald the Rhymer**! I know that’s a long drive from Memphis, but maybe some of y’all could car pool and make the trip more fun. Even if you are from out of state, but close enough to get here, come on! ---

Adding my name to the list of Middle Tennesseans. I don’t post much, but I read the SD throughout the entire day, so I feel like one of the gang. 🙂 ---

Just as a refresher, here’s the list – now up to 48 – I’ve been keeping. This one is without the “recent activity” check from before (March 31 – Post # 18), so there are some of these who are no longer active at SDMB. Those who have posted in this thread – and who still count as Tennessee (Not just Middle TN) people – are marked \*\*\* (Let me know of other changes I need to make, please.) ```auto adhemar Aesiron *** Angel of Doubt *** Anise aquasunset Batsinma Belfry Bexan *** billyb0b Bosda Di'Chi of Tricor *** Brynda *** Calliope cosmosdan Cub Mistress *** diku drewbert Electronic Chaos *** evilbeth Grant Graycat gytalf2000 Hades *** Hung Mung jackelope Jelly Roll *** Litoris lokij lost4life lovelyluka Mariemarie Max Carnage missred *** NoOrdinaryRabbit *** percypercy *** pinknotes210 *** pope_hentai Rushgeekgirl saje *** ShadiRoxan Skald the Rhymer Skammer spingears StGermain *** Tuckerfan vibrotronica Walter Windchill xizor Zeldar *** Zoe *** ``` ---

Thanks, **Zeldar**! Since you tend to be our unofficial census keeper, I generally do a copy/paste from yours. 🙂 ---

If the “nevermind” was because I didn’t have you on my TN Dopers list, it’s because you say > [@](#): > > I’m not in TN, but I am in what’s counted as the Tennessee Valley, and I live about an hour south of Nashville. I’d be up for a gettogether… and the list is for TN Dopers. Maybe we could set some arbitrary radius length (what, 100 miles?) from somewhere in Middle Tennessee (such as the geographical center of the state not far east of Murfreesboro) and let that define the comfortable driving distance for people and Dopefest activities. That might be a fun list to have as well. Northern Alabama, Southern Kentucky, Northwestern Georgia, Northeastern Mississippi, all would be closer than Memphis, Knoxville and Tri-Cities in Tennessee. Just something to bat around since the thread is about “Middle Tennessee Dopers” and my list is Tennessee Dopers. Not the same thing, granted. Is 100 miles too short? Is there a better “center”? If you consider yourself “close to Nashville” and don’t live in Tennessee, how far would you be driving to get to a Dopefest in Nashville? ---

> [@missred](#): > > Thanks, **Zeldar**! > > Since you tend to be our unofficial census keeper, I generally do a copy/paste from yours. 🙂 Thanks for the vote, but I’m pretty sure I have run across posts from people not on the list who are almost surely from Tennessee. I just don’t always think to update the list when I see them. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to know there at least another ten or so such people.
