Color me very interested in attending, transit-dependent, and located on the west side. On the down side, I have an irregular and only semi-predictable work schedule, so locating times when I'm available may be interesting.
The last time we did these locally, we rotated around between various restaurants/pubs/coffee places in the area (Lloyd District, inner Powell, outer southwest); OTOH, I was the only non-driver in that group. With two of the three-so-far in that mode, a suggestion: the Beaverton Powell's is right on a newly 24/7 bus line and within longish walking distance of MAX; in its immediate orbit are a Panera, a New Seasons, and a shiny new food-cart pod with indoor seating. Depending on how folks are geographically distributed, that seems like a potentially useful cluster of meeting spots.
