  Q: Where will the next 2600
meeting be?A: The SCREENZ located on Clark Street half of block south of Diversey. Just take the Red or Brown lines to Belmont and walk east to Clark then south to Diversey or take a 22 bus. Or take Red or Brown lines to Fullerton. THen walk Fullerton east to Clark then Clark north to Diversey. Q: When are 2600 meetings
held? A: On the first Friday of every month between 5:00pm and 8:00pm Q: Is this location permenant?A I hope so. There have been some difficulties in finding a home for the meeting. These difficulties range from places agreeing to host the meeting and then getting closed down by The City of Chicago to general confusion over public transportation. Q: Do I have to be a member
of your club to attend the meetings?A: There is no club. 2600 meetings are just a chance for concerned citizens to get together and discuss issues relating to computer security, encryption, telephony, privacy issues, the freedom of information, and nything else that seems relevant. THERE IS NO 2600 CLUB, and if there were most people who go to the meetings probably wouldn't join it. Q: Will I be the only woman
there?A: No. Q: I don't know anything
about computers, but I want to learn, or I amjust curious about what these meetings are all about, am I welcome? A: Yes. EVERYONE is welcome. The atmosphere at these meetings is pretty friendly, so don't worry. Q: Wow! Everyone is welcome.
That's great because I am border-linepsychotic and I like to corner people at meetings such as yours, and start doing any or all of the following: 1) Babble on endlessly about how extra-solar lifeforms are controlling our thoughts. 2) Start rapping in front of an unwilling, unappreciative, and (quite frankly) frightened audience. 3) Choke people, whom I don't even know. 4) Mumble to myself and get into fights with people who are not in the room. A: Yeah, I guess you're welcome too. Q: I'm an admin at one of
Chicago's best Internet Service Providers, am Iallowed to come to your meeting? A: YES. Admins of most of the larger ISPs in Chicago have attended and do regularly attend these meetings. You won't be made fun of, and you'll even have a good chance of picking up some new customers. Q: I found at least a half-dozen
mistakes in spelling, punctuation andgrammar in this FAQ, aren't I cool? A: No. |
