Make it lunch and I'd be there. Who else is in the Bay Area? I suggest meeting in downtown Palo Alto, close to the Caltrain; that's the densest concentration of restaurants in Silicon Valley and makes it accessible to people coming from anywhere in the Valley or SF.
Here's a concrete proposal: University Ave at Ramona St, Palo Alto 12:45 PM (on Saturday the 17th) That's about a three-minute walk from the Caltrain (four if you're coming from the platform on the far side), and in amongst a ton of restaurants. Trains arrive from south and north at 12:31 and 12:39. Who's in?
