Well, in February it’ll be 30 years of the Straight Dope.
Should we all get together and celebrate?
And meet Cecil?
vanilla - 3550 posts and you didn’t put this in MPSIMS ?!
Great idea though - I’d be up for it. The problem would be the choice of location, given how Dopers are spread all over the world.
Let’s meet here!
(Oh, we already do. Never mind…)
Vanilla - you mean you didn’t get your invitation yet? Geez, I had mine months ago! I think you need to RSVP by August 15th. You better track down Cecil and ask for another invitation.
On second thought, nevermind. Maybe you’re not on “The List”.
vanilla,
Please take some time to read the forum descriptions.
Off to MPSIMS.

Forgive me, Dr.M.:o
Chicago has got to be the place!
I think not. After all, The Great Wondrous Annual Dopefest Of New York City[sup]TM[/sup] will be in January.
And everyone who attends will still be recovering.
Just so you know, I do realize it is more appropriate ot be in Chicago, but that’s just too much and too far for some of us, who really will still be recuperating from NYC Dopefest weekend.
Right, so our choices are New York or Chicago? In January? For a party?
How about someplace warm, like New Orleans or LA?
Why just one? Why not synchronized Dopefests all across the globe? We could have a day where the boards are virtually deserted because we’re all partying. The sun will never set on the Straight Dope.

That is really a good idea.

We have six months to plan…
and more to recover!
