[ale] PGP / GPG Keysigning party... Reminder and confirmation.

Mon Nov 28 13:36:16 EST 2011

oh man. I looked at their list on their website. Food looks pricey and the
beer list is highlighted by Heineken and Corona.

Would like to recommend Battle and Brew instead:

snacks, general food, drinkable beers and apparently all sorts of gaming
stuff. seems very geeky.

As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to
consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they
please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.
