I'm planning on coming, probably from Ballard.

Hey all,
Chris and I will be talking about numpy on Thursday. That said, I
can't tell if I'm getting nervous b/c we're on the hook for that or if
it's that combined with the potential traffic mayhem some of us may
encounter trying to get from NE Seattle to Office Nomads and back. I
definitely look forward to discussing numpy but I'm pretty
apprehensive about the traffic (Metro is going to be rerouting the
68/372/31 lines starting at 2:30 pm). I hate to potentially mess up
the meeting planning nor do I want to say let's re-schedule (though my
gut tells me it would be wise)... so I'm looking for some objective
metric by which to make the decision (not that it's really mine to
make) or gain some peace that it's going to be alright. To that end,
I'm wondering
1) how many are planning on attending?
2) how many will be departing from/returning to north of 520 or the east side?
3) how many will just decide to skip it b/c traffic is going to be too painful?
4) your thoughts?
Here are some links that discuss the associated traffic:

Go Dawgs! (Don't hate b/c they're screwing up our traffic :-)

So it's at Office Nomads, not the UW.
Yeah, I realized that but was thinking it's going to be a nasty p.m.
for car or transit. Especially problematic if one is coming from
north of 520. And getting back north or east on 520 will be bad too.
I can man up and get there but think there may be some major headaches
for anyone planning on getting to/from the meeting between 3:30 to
10:30 pm.

Hey Mike,
I'm a bit concerned that next Thursday is going to present some
serious transportation problems with a Husky game on Montlake from
5:30-9 (not to mention rush hour). Do you have an opinion on this or
do you want to query the seapy folks (or me to do so)?
Thanks,
Matt

The November meeting will be on November 18th, a week later than usual
due to Veteran's Day. That's the week before Thanksgiving. The meeting
will be at Office Nomads, 7-9pm.
Chris Barker will give his long-awaited talk about NumPy.
Make that Chris Barker and Matt Stumbaugh.
Chris, can
you remind us what specifically you'll be covering?
We haven't nailed down the outline yet, but we'll introduce numpy, discuss
why you'd want to us it (even if you aren't crunching numbers), and show
some nifty examples.
We'll put a more detailed outline in the Wiki at some point.
