Have you ever met a calculator community member in real life?

See topic title. I was wondering if any of you ever met other community members in real life? I am talking especially about people you originally met online, then later saw them in person (such as during a trip).

I know that some Omnimaga and Cemetech staff often meet each others at Maker Faire in September and that past ticalc.org staff often met each others as well. In my case I met Aaroneusthegreat in 2009 and I often see Juju since late 2010. Juju also met Deep Toaster (formerly Deep Thought) from Omnimaga in 2014 and there are chances that PatrickD visit Canada this July so hopefully I can see him

What about you?

Yep, I met DJ here numerous times and I met Deep Toaster once while he was visiting my town.

I wish. Sometime, there needs to be a calculator or anagram convention in West Allis...I'd be there in a heartbeat!

That would be cool. I wish I could afford traveling to USA actually. I need a passport first but I never bothered getting one since I can't afford to travel anyway. If 9/11 didn't happen then we wouldn't even need a passport anyway in Canada to visit USA I think.

Besides those who I have introduced, no. I almost met comicIDIOT but plans fell through.

Same here. I do wish to go in some conventions in the USA, but, eh, money.

Sorry to hear it didn't work out. With Deep Toaster I almost met him but his trip was postponed 1 day later. I asked the previous day off but didn't have the other one off, and he could only stay in Quebec City for 2 hours to eat because that was a guided tour from some Chinese company. D:

Yeah, almost didn't went either, but I went anyway. Shame he wasn't there for long.

Let's see. I've met Harold, Keoni29, and Vijfhoek. That's quite a few. @Vijfhoek @Keoni29 @Cumred_Snektron @brentmaas we need to meet up with us 5 some time
