have you been interviewed before?
Sure. I'm pretty old. Lots of job interviews. My kids interview me every now and then. I'm independent now (jobless/self-employed/free/whatever), but I still talk to potential clients on the phone every now and then. And I'm not smart enough to tell if you're just poking fun at me because my post kind of reads like a resume cover letter. Made me smile either way :-). yea i was serious how old? when did you get first into bitcoin

I'm tracking meetups at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=155600.0Of course, this is the "Where to meet?" thread, though the poll is closed. I'm pretty sure there are a lot more SoCal bitcoiners than there are contributors to this thread, so I'm glad you joined it. You might be interested in the Society of Libertarian Enterpreneurs, which is meeting in three days. They aren't bitcoiners per se - some are familiar and some aren't.

There will be at least two Bitcoiners meeting (myself being one of them) in Cerritos this afternoon (Saturday March 23, 2013). Details for the afternoon event: [Update: There had been the desire expressed for an evening event as well. Notice was too short to try to plan one for today (Saturday March 23) but suggestions for an April date and location might help cause that to happen. A location with Wi-Fi would be preferred.

Hi Stephen,
so far I think you and DrG will be showing up.
Josephine's is now offering free wireless internet access to its patrons through a hardware firewall. Just bring your wireless capable laptop & get connected to the web.

I'm bringing a Wi-Fi enabled tablet too. Then bitZino slots or something to let the server try to juice up the tip a little. Looks like there will be a few attending: 5 [so far]
I have reserved a table under Jose

Incidentally, the Orange County Register today had a full page in the Business section for Bitcoin: NO date, man?
I just read it. It was today's paper (April 12th, 2013). It included the one-paragraph masthead teaser on the front page of the business section. Then the entire page 8 was devoted to Bitcoin. (Incidentally, page 9 was a large article about the dangers of mobile payments and had a picture of a merchant's Square register setup.) There were a few articles on the page. One was an interview of Casascius. The top of the page had a "What is a bitcoin" infographic. Another article titled "Bitcoin Economics" was a primer on teh evil deflations and why Bitcoin will never work (I'm paraphrasing roughly what the article said). The main article was this: Bitcoin bursts: Hacker currency gets wild ride - http://news.yahoo.com/bitcoin-bursts-hacker-currency-gets-wild-ride-174931830--finance.html

Any report on how that went? Also, heads-up: Next week in Southern California (Los Angeles and/or San Diego, I couldn't make it out), the first Bitcoin ATM will be deployed [Edit: demonstrated]. - http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=177397.0
