It might not be a big event in everyone's world, but the opening of the new Star Trek movie is a major event for my Star Trek group. If you don't remember, I belong to a Star Trek group, which is basically a group of physicist friends who met weekly throughout graduate school to watch some Star Trek, hang out, and drink beer. As time went on, different couples joined or left, and we started watching only one episode a night, giving us more time to catch up. When we moved away from each other, we started meeting virtually. We video chat for an hour, watch an episode on our individual computers, then video chat some more. I have been really grateful to have this regular contact with old friends, something that's hard to come by when you're moving a lot.
This weekend the current Star Trek group will be convening, in person, for the new movie. This is make a bit easier by the fact that two-thirds of the group now live in DC, but it still means that people are flying in from Boston and New Mexico.

Yay - New Mexico representation!
Such dedication - the travellers could do with their own transporters - save a lot of time.
wow, that's commitment. Where exactly is the physicist location in New Mexico. And I'm excited about the new star trek film too damn it!
I do trust all the concepts you have offered in your post.
They're really convincing and can definitely work. Nonetheless, the posts are too brief for newbies. May just you please lengthen them a bit from subsequent time? Thanks for the post.
