Well, no.  There are people who would like to attend BayPIGgies meetings
regardless of where they are.  I'm strongly opposed to splintering the
physical meeting, not until we have enough people to sustain separate
groups with multiple meetings per month, and I don't think we do while
maintaining the community.

Moreover, there's something that seems really wrong to me about using
the "famous members" as an excuse.

Finally, I haven't seen a lot of people arguing for a north bay meeting.
Mostly people are arguing for east bay, SF, and north peninsula.
