Hi, Andrew, Just in case you (and Phoebe) have contacts in SF -- my partner have lived here in SF for 30+ years and do not own a car.* I would appreciate hearing from people on this list who might be driving down to this event from SF. Thanks, Tom Mayer *I'll refrain from making jokes about LA's car culture, and in return I hope you guys treat my request seriously . . . Thanks!

Hi all, hope folks from the SF Bay Area can make this event
coordinated with the Computer History Museum to get a backstage tour
and to brainstorm about their upcoming Wikipedia exhibit.
Please spread the word to Silicon Valley friends non-Wikipedians. The
Museum is right near the Googleplex and is an amazing facility.

PS: I'm driving up from LA, so you don't even need to be from SF area
to make it!
MEETUP ANNOUNCEMENT
San Francisco Bay Area Wiki Meetup at the Computer History Museum
Time: Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 4pm to 8pm.
Location: Computer History Museum, Mountain View, Calif.
Meet Wikipedians and help edit a museum exhibit about Wikipedia!
The purpose of the meet up is twofold:
1. Meet fellow Wikipedians in the San Francisco Bay/Silicon Valley
area while getting a behind the scenes tour of the Computer History
Museum.
2. Help edit this exhibit! The Museum is crafting an exhibit about
Wikipedia that will debut in 2013. What should an exhibit about
Wikipedia have? How should it display Wikipedia's activities, live,
for visitors? Who better than ask than Wikipedians. Meet the museum
staff to brainstorm around ideas and how to display and visualize
Wikipedia to the public.
Who should attend: Wikipedians and non-Wikipedians alike, but
especially museum or technology enthusiasts
Address: Computer History Museum,
1401 North Shoreline Boulevard Mountain View, California.
