Still deciding what to make, but it'll probably be baked and definitely delicious. Andrew³²⁷ 03:34, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Probably will come, not too sure yet— Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.48.139.104 (talk • contribs) 16:56, 17 June 2013‎ (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to attend though as I live in Charlottesville and it's a moderately long and expensive drive or train ride up I'd say the odds are probably less than even given my level of commitment as I write this. I do hope to make a DC meeting eventually though even if not this week's.--Riyuky (talk) 12:57, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
