I don't know if anyone has ever posted this before.i searched the forum and did not find anything similar. So my question is do CWE members want to do meet ups? I'm from around the New York City area and I'm pretty sure there's a lot of you guys from northern Jersey or southern New York who could do a meet up. I'm not just talking about my area. Even of you're in Australia or Austria or South Africa can't you select a city with a lot of CWE members and just meet and talk to each other about anything?I apologize if this is against forum rules or if someone has posted this before.( just delete it if either of these is the case lol)o what do you guys think?

I met with about 15 ppl on a board I use to go on like 10-12 years ago in under ground atlanta.
 
I'm not a big traveler, but when people are around St Louis, I'm always willing to grab a bite or drink. I wouldn't be one to travel very far, though. I've met up with guys from the motorsports forums, so totally acceptable.
 
I used to go on an Australian epilepsy forum & met 2 ladies from the forum who both also had surgery. One lady lived in the same town where I had the surgery & the other lady had her surgery at the same hospital as me.
It has been 3 years since I had my surgery & almost 3 years since the other 2 ladies had their surgery & I still keep in touch with the other 2 ladies through email or Facebook.

I also have another friend with epilepsy who lives in the next town to me who I was introduced to by my epilepsy educator at the Epilepsy Foundation I am through.
I used to catch up with this friend every few months for a chat but now I don't get a chance to catch up with her as much now that I'm working.
