And that cancelled meeting the other time was when I was supposed to come
from Winston...
So, I'll do a shameless plug for PYPTUG monthly meeting (next Tuesday), if
you can't get enough of Python and don't mind driving west on I-40 to Wake
Forest University's campus. It is Rob Agle who will be doing an extended
version of the presentation he did at PyDataCarolinas last week (if you
didn't get a chance to attend that one):

Hopefully the fuel supply is back to normal by then.

Pydata exhaustion.
The good news: PyData Carolinas 2016 was a success beyond anything those
of us involved in organizing ever expected. It was amazing to see the
work of 72 volunteers including 26 board members come together to make
the biggest Python event ever seen in our area. IBM were amazing hosts.
The catering was fantastic (eastern AND western NC BBQ at Thursday
lunch). The evening receptions were tres elegant. Our sponsors were
wonderful. Our attendees were engaged and excited. I was just wowed at
what our community can do.
The bad news: There's a gas shortage. We have no speaker lined up this
month. Everyone is dead tired from all the work that went into PyData
Carolinas last week. So I'm doing something I say no Python group should
ever do, and which we have only had to do once before in our 14 years of
existence, and then only due to extraordinary weather. I'm saying that I
won't be hosting a TriPython monthly general meeting this week. Sad
trombone. I get a lot out of seeing everybody at these meetings. But I
saw about 400 people for three days last week and that's going to have
to carry me through this month. :)
Now, because TriPython is a do-acracy, anyone can declare a meeting. I
have just been declaring meetings in order to see that we have meetings
that take place on a somewhat regular and normalized basis. But that
doesn't mean you cannot declare you own meeting at your own time and
place. You just need a time and place and to let this list know about it
in time.
Among regularly scheduled meetings, we will resume at Raleigh Project
Night at WebAssign on (first) Tuesday, October 4 from 6pm until 9pm:

Also, wouldn't it be wonderful if someone stepped forward to be our
featured speaker for the October meeting at RENCI? And the November
meeting at WebAssign? Or any future meeting? The floor is all yours to
call shotgun on any future month's general meeting.
