I found some photos on the web of the old Washington get-together. If anyone is willing, I was wondering if anyone would like to point themselves out. I'm just curious. Feel perfectly free to remain anonymous.

Nope, sorry, wasn't there...but then, you, Neisha, Justin '77 and of course Jenny already know what I look like. The DC get together...that was back in 2000, before I became a regular poster, wasn't it?Originally Posted by Peter Gibbons
remind me never to get my picture taken with you guys...
I attended a get together in January 2001. This wasn't it -- I recall that it was very C O L D when we got together.Originally Posted by Peter Gibbons
However, I do recognize some faces and when I have a chance, I'll try to identify them for you.

I'm at the far right in the front row. I still lurk here occasionally. Where did you find these pictures? Were there more?

Yes it is. The picture was taken at the C-Span studios. Brian interviewed the authors about T4T with the rest of us as an audience. During part of the show, Brian directed a few questions to the audience. I wonder if the show is still archived somewhere?

I wonder if Mr. Black might take the time to id some of the folks for us? Like, where's that looney David Kaiser? :wink:
p.s. The photos appear to have come from here.

Back then the Devil's Troglodyte didn't harass the board and concentrated on his onanistic pleasures, to the exclusion of all else apparently. Now THOSE must've been the days. :wink:Originally Posted by cbailey

No. Robert Reed was not at the 2001 get-together. This one was probably around 1998 or 1999.Originally Posted by Roadbldr '59
