As a numpy user myself I am looking forwards to Thursday's meeting. I am trying to recruit 1-3 matlab and java coworkers to come as well.
That traffic shouldn't affect me (maybe us).

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: http://metrocommute.wordpress.com/2010/11/15/thursday-night-husky-game-expect-uw-area-transit-service-delays-campus-reroutes/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter http://metro.kingcounty.gov/up/rr/reroutes.html http://blog.seattlepi.com/huskies/archives/227886.asp Not directly relevant but interesting, http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Northwest/King/ExpressLanes/I-5HuskyGames.htm Go Dawgs! (Don't hate b/c they're screwing up our traffic :-) Matt ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Matt Stumbaugh <[email protected]> Date: Sat, Nov 13, 2010 at 1:35 AM Subject: Re: [SEAPY] November meeting confirmed To: Mike Orr <[email protected]> > 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.
