FYI, this meetup will be announced at ACX, so we can expect more people than usual.

Agree with Luis's sentiment.  Unless we put in more thought about how to indoctrinate the uninitiated, posting it on meetup/eventbrite presents the risk of devolving this into just another social gathering.  However, maybe it's worth it to run the risk and potentially evangelize at least one person 😁 So, I think we should post it up there, but make it explicit that if you join, it's because you're curious about this.  We can just post some links to intros and explanations about EA/ACX.

FYI, the audio on the recording is slightly weird. :)
