Well, I didn't see this post until today, five hours before the gathering is planned to begin. So I feel like a real jerk saying "I'd love to come by." I will not be offended if ignored!

I have a whole lot of hors d’oeuvres (how I hate that word); wine, beer, cider; diet coke, dr. pepper, lemon-lime sode, diet orange soda, diet root beer, cherry soda; crackers; potato and corn chips, french fries, mini-tacos, peanuts; small chocolate bars; one pie and one cheesecake; cookies; crab cakes; carrots & celery.

Could use more dips and spreads, fruit juice, mead, bagels, homemade bread, and actual food.

I'm well-stocked for games, but you can bring games. If you have a video that you think is particularly relevant, bring it. In either case it's up to you to convince people to play/watch.

Phil, Tim and I will be there. What can we bring?

I sent the email. If you didn't get it, let me know.

What happens at these meetings? Don't know. Never been to one.

I didn't get the email so I'm re-commenting.

I'd love to come. Thanks for hosting, Philip!

I should be able to make it.

Could someone describe other OB meetings - what they did, what they liked/disliked - to give me some ideas how to run it?

I don't envision this as being a single long discussion session. My parties usually have 2 or 3 groups doing different things in parallel and serial.
