It's the New Madrid Fault!

Who else felt this morning's 5.4-magnitude Illinois earthquake? Mods, feel free to delete this if need be. I don't know if this is an accepted use of MeTa or not, but I didn't see anything about the earthquake on the blue, and couldn't think of a non-chatfilter AskMe question about it. While I understand that bigger earthquakes than this happen on a regular basis in other places, and in fact do happen fairly regularly on the New Madrid fault as well, this was still a pretty big one for us in the Midwest. Big enough that I felt it in my apartment building in St. Louis, Mo. (Hence why I'm awake right now.)

It's my happening and it freaks me out!

Central Illinois meetup @ Ebertfest? I know there was some talk of a Central Illinois meetup a while back. It seems like the upcoming Ebertfest might be a good time to revisit the idea. The festival takes place from the 23-27th of this month. Discuss.

Any Centrally Illini Interested In A Meetup?

Possible hot MeFi on MeFi Central Illinois-ish action? As I am getting progressively more annoyed with seeing the only MeFi in range being my ex-wife, I was wonder if there might be any interested in a central Illinois soiree? I, for one, am located in Decatur? If interested MeFiMail me, or nonMeFiMail me (address in profile), as I am not usually an attendee of the Grey.

There were vague rumblings about a festive Chicago meet-up (Yes, we have a lot of meet-ups in the city of big shoulders. We need booze to stay warm). Tuesday the 12th at the Duke of Perth has been proposed and seconded.

Let's try this again. Anyone down for a Chicago meetup? My vote is again for Quenchers (corner of Fullerton and Western), but I'm down for Margies (or any other place) too.

April Copynight. I'm trying to put together a copynight gathering in Chicago next month (the March event is tomorrow night and I doubt I can get it thrown together by then). While not a per se metafilter event, I think some Chicago area mefis would be interested. I'd like to pick a venue near the loop to make it easy for the postwork crowd. My short list includes Monk's Pub, Fado and Manhattan's.

So what with all the new members around, we should be able to get more than four people together for a Chicago meetup, right?
