September GrindFest
First Weekend-ish/Monday-ish (9/5 - 9/7) in September there's going to be a meetup here at the Tehachapi Labspace. Zoltan Istvan, author of the Transhumanist Wager and presidential candidate is going to be driving out in the infamous Coffin Bus. If you'd like to attend, please let me know. I'd like to make this one a tad more polished than the last... with things like chairs. There will be plenty of booze and food and such.
If anyone would like a time slot to present or teach, please let me know. I'm going to be doing a little class/chat on something or other myself. There will be film crews and whatnot associated with Istvans visit, so I'll let y'all know the day of his visit. It would be fun to have a good turn out on that day. Come show your support. There is plenty of floor space available and it's nice and warm at night if anyone wants to bring a tent.
If you'd like to have an implant performed while at this event, please let me know ahead of time. Last time I was unsuccessful scheduling everyone in and I'd like to have a list ready ahead. Come on out and participate.

I usually hit SD first when I hit that coast, and from SD to LAX isn't too bad. But getting from SD to the lab with only public transportation is... well it's an adventure :) If anyone's traveling up from either SD or LAX or near those areas, it would be super rad if we could coordinate. I'm considering renting a car at some point so I'm not juggling 3 buses, a train, a cab, and a plane all in one day.
I'll be coming from the Sacramento area if anyone wants to coordinate something, else I'll be driving on my own.
I'll probably hitch with @meanderingman
There will be plenty of every type of RFID as well as M31s being implanted. The magnets can also be placed tragus if anyone would like.
Also, I'm now planning all the food/booze/talks etc. and so if anyone wants a chance to speak please let me know and I'll slot you in. Even if we've already spoken about it, please email the above stuff so I know the best time to slot you in.
Also, anyone who intends to brings gifts/supplies/food/booze this would be awesome or contribute monetarily. It's definitely not a prerequisite. Come broke and you'll still have a good time but I've been advised that begging and pleading is a more lucrative approach than being silent. Any contributions are appreciated.
Also, thank you Cyberlas and Proteus and people who are helping out to make this thing awesome.
