I'd second that. This is the first meeting I'd been too, and it was  
great to hear Chad speak about his experience's with Ruby and of  
Rails. I particularly liked the whole hate him / love him angle he  
took when explaining how DHH and Rails has helped raise the profile  
of the Ruby community.

I look forward to the next meet up, and seeing some actual 'stuff'  
people are doing.
