Yes, it's true. The original Gay Geeks, founded in 1997 has had a couple events during the past year. Well, now we're going to embark on a regular monthly social to start. We'll see how it goes from there, but it looks like we'll have some field trips and whatnot.
The original Gay Geeks is a haven for intellectuals and visionaries. We talk about the arts and sciences, not about gay stuff. Past topics have included astronomy, the value of religion in modern life, memes, molecular technology, and things like that.
I envision that our next gathering will be Saturday August 4, 2007 in SF, but that hasn't been solidified yet. Sorry, this a San Francisco Bay Area in-person group, so if you won't be in SF this group probably won't interest you.
Get on the mailing list to participate and find out the location of the next gathering. I promise you that you will meet some astounding people!

Re: SF Gay Geeks Group Returns Soon!
Thu, August 16, 2007 - 3:28 AMOKAY! This is IT! Our First Gathering of 2007!
I can't STAND it anymore! I've had one vapid conversation too many.
Announcing the next Original Gay Geeks Gathering:
Saturday, August 18, 2:00pm Mission Creek Cafe, back room 968 Valencia Street (betw 20th and 21st) San Francisco
I haven't cleared this with management (hell, I'd have to be there before 11am on a weekday!) but what the heck. They have good food (try the Chicken Salpicon sandwich!) and a good atmosphere. Heck, there are even books for sale in the back room. How much more nerdy can you get?
Gay Geeks is a haven for intellectuals and visionaries. Thus, your learned geekery is most welcome. If you study languages, streetcars, oceans, Islam, or have a collection of Elvis postcards, or you're running for mayor of SF, you're our kind of people. Come on by. This sets the Original Gay Geeks apart from other such groups. The group doesn’t focus on computers, and it doesn’t focus on gay issues. In fact, we’ve usually gone through hours of discussions and not mentioned computers or gay folks even once.
I envision that this gathering will meet the FIRST and THIRD Saturdays of the month at 2:00pm, but always read the email first to be sure where we're meeting.
To get onto the email list, send a blank email to: sfgaygeeks-subscribe@yahoogroups.com or visit the Yahoo group website at: groups.yahoo.com/group/sfgaygeeks
Topics: Be most assured that the topics will be a whirlwind of everything imaginable.
Show & Tell: If you have something interesting to show, such as your bug collection or whatnot, consider bringing it to one of our future gatherings.
