Nope, cant say that I have. But I wonder, is anyone here from anywhere in the san francisco bay area, or the monterey bay area? Or even (highly unlikely) from Angels Camp CA or another town in that area?

The only one who I know (in the "real" world) that goes to this site is my friend from michigan who introduced it to me. Also, I know a few people in my school have searched "Jake Griffin" on Google, and my ticalc Author Profile page came up...that's about it though. I voted "no" anyway because none of the people I know that have been to this site are true ticalc'ers...not even the one who showed me the site. He just likes taking other peoples programs, and he INSISTS that there is a way to expand memory indefinitly using a program that he has written...I'm not letting that program TOUCH my TI89...It's too risky ;)

Yeah, lots of people have found my author program by typing my name in as well. But nobody I know actually joins the community when I tell them about it :( They just download games. To me, that doesn't make you a ticalc'er.

I'm not sure...something like that. However, I believe a sledgehammer and wire-feed welder would be a closer guess... ;) <<I'm done with you little winking smiley guy!

I bet his program just deletes everything on the calc as soon as it's created, so it only _appears_ there is infinite memory.

It's kind of like /dev/null: you can send unlimited amounts data to it and it just takes it. (Of course, it's only Write-Only Memory (WOM) so you can't read from it later :-)

We ought to get together sometime. Have a big ticalc.org picnic thingy with people from around the world in someplace that is a central airport hub like New York (also, NY has Central Park). I live in Louisiana, so I am not just vouching for someplace near me. We could have program trading, refreshments, program ideas shared. Maybe even do it annually. And we might just get on CNN's little blue sub-news ticker. Maybe we'll invite a TI rep.

LOL- I just imagined how funny that would be. A big picnic of a bunch of nerds, playing games on their calculator while they're eating. Most of us probably don't even go away from the computer, unless forced (like me, lol), so the social skills of the majority of us would be pretty bad too. Haha, but it would be funny :)

we could set up a webcam, for the ones who don't go. you know, one without sound, so we don't have to stretch our social interaction skills out too much.

Although I've noticed that the only reason I'm not "soctially inclined" as some might say is that I just don't share many interests with most people. When I get around other programmers however, I can TALK! It's actually kind of humorous...hearing my own voice and not the *tickticktick* of the keyboard.... ;) <<I've noticed that this has become my "signature" so I'm going to stop...

Are you sure? A while ago I saw a survey that showed that people that use computers (read: the Internet) a lot have better social skills than the average person. The people who held the survey thought that it was related to the fact that we spend a lot of time on our social contacts (even if they aren't face-to-face), such as mailing and boarding.
A grand gettogether would be very neat, but since most of us are in high school or college, we could't afford a trip to the US just for fun. Too bad, really too bad.... :(

I might go if there where girls with TI's. In other words, chances are I wouldn't go.
