Announce: San Francisco Cypherpunks, Sat 2/16/02, 6pm - 225 11th, SF

[Bill Stewart]

This announcement will be at 
http://cryptorights.org/cypherpunks/meetingpunks.html
and is being sent to several cypherpunks-related mailing lists.
===============================================

The San Francisco Bay Area Cypherpunks Meeting will be
Saturday, February 16, 2002, at Don Ramon's Restaurant, 225 11th St, San 
Francisco.


As usual, this is an open public meeting on US soil.
Everyone's invited, including non-US-citizens, and several suspected Canadians
will be present :-)

Our agenda is a widely-held secret.
Predicted topics include Intrepid Traveller Bill Scannell's trip to Cuba,
discussion of the crypto and data-sharing presentations from Codecon,
potentially a couple of projects that were too late for Codecon,
and generally what everybody's been doing and working on.

The unusual time and place are because the Codecon conference www.codecon.org
will be a block away at the DNA Lounge www.dnalounge.com Friday-Sunday 
afternoons,
and the RSA conference will be at the San Jose Convention Center the 
following week.
A number of cypherpunks will be speaking at Codecon (See people.html and 
schedule.html.)

The RSA Conference appears to have decided to protect their agenda through 
Obscurity;
you can obtain PDFs of the agenda from their website if you have Multimedia 
Flash :-)
Codecon is a low-priced conference; RSA has high-priced talks, low-priced 
exhibits,
and the usual vendor parties.

=================== DIRECTIONS AND PARKING ====================================
Don Ramon's Restaurant - Look for Usual Suspects, probably upstairs.
	The restaurant serves family-style Mexican food, as well as
	caffeine and ethanol, and is said to be pretty good.

Directions: 	225 11th St. is a block north of the DNA Lounge,
	for which directions are available at http://www.dnalounge.com/directions/ .

 From the South Bay:
	Take 101 North to the 9th Street / Civic Center exit.
	Take 9th Street, and turn left onto Harrison, then right onto 11th.

 From the East Bay:
	From the Bay Bridge, take I-80 West to the 9th Street / Civic Center exit.
	Keep right at the fork in the ramp. Turn left onto Harrison, then right 
onto 11th.

By Public Transit:
	The nearest BART stations are at 16th and Mission and Civic Center (Market 
and Hyde),
