    We are coming up to the 4th anniversary of bbs-scene.org. Over the past 4 years I've gotten great support from all sorts of people. The IRC network
    has been busy, the global onelinerz is reaching 4000 posts, the bbs list is heavily used and the banner exchange is going strong.

    I'm thinking of doing something special, maybe we can have an online party
    or something and crack a few brews. What's everyone's thoughts?

    Beer? I'm in. Maybe gatherings where people are close enough to meet up, eg. the Toronto area.

    Yes, and maybe bringing people in via skype video or something like that.
    A Skype beer fest.

    I may have found a job! Which means I'll be attending via skype live from Afghanistan. Fun times.

    Isn't the drive from Colorado to Afghanistan a bit long?

    WTF are you doing there? Private security?

    the Toronto area.
    I'm in.

    I'm into attempting it. Depends on work schedule, I do work 4am-4pm so am only available on days off.

    We plan on doing it on the Saturday night. I think mcmcclx and Mercyful
    are considering coming up.

    If you do that, I vote that we use some spare computing cycles to try and crack the obv source pgp zipfile :)

    I asked jp to send it to me. I have some powerful servers at work that are greatly under-used. I'd like to take a crack at it. Haven't gotten it yet though.

    Over the next few days I will be releasing more details, once I nail a location down.

    Your place would do! #-)

    Please let me know if you want to come or join us!

    Are you offering free air fairs?

    If you were somewhat local i'd offer my points. I don't think I have
    enough to cover the other side of the world.

    You'd also need to bring a translator with your accent and all.

    I know we are both part of the commonwealth and that old hag in the UK is
    our monarch, but I can never understand you folks.

    I had to entertain labour leaders from Scotland and Australia one night.
    As the night went on the drinks started to flow. Towards the end of the
    night the aussie couldn't understand the scott and the scott couldn't understand the aussie, and me, the Canadian, couldn't understand either.
