We had out meetup this evening and it was fun. A special shout-out has to go to Bruce Thompson for driving 90 minutes to get here (and thus 90 minutes back) and regaling us with stories of flying fast and low over the ground.
PZ or GrrlScientist may have photos later ...

No traffic made for a quicker trip back out to the desert where decent people live. PZ doesn't look evil at all and it was nice to meet the girl scientist in person. Come on out and see what biology looks like from above, it's a whole different perspective.
I AM TOO EVIL!
It's just that my manifestation in this dimension looks like a doughy 5'11" nebbish with a graying beard. In my home dimension I'm 12' tall with scales, slime, tentacles, and fangs. Really. Trust me on this.
I think you may have been listening to teenage daughters and undergrads.
