Then the place limitation should be eliminated.

Place cannot be an issue.

They dont have to count as taking up a space, they will have their own table get together perhaps

what does that mean that they will have their own get together?
some members of DDF are women (who's spouses are men).

None have expressed interest, AFAICR. And if one did, I'd think it's a bad idea.

pwned!

Ouch!

Its bad, since they would be coming alone.

If some ladies (victims of DD members) are there, it makes more sense.

Usually I consolidate my posts into one, but this deserves a post of its own, I've already met 4 active members of DD/DDF in person, all people I didn't know from before (and another one who I did, but didn't know well and didn't know was on DDF).

How many of you can trump that?

You're a dealer. I met 3/4 just to chat, and would meet the fourth in person if he had more time (we spent hours on the phone chatting).

Oh, and if any of you met me and want me to shut up about it for some reason, don't worry, I won't rat you out over here.

Come to think of it, didn't you have an (unofficial) DO in Israel?

I've met three in person.

PS Nice meeting you Asher!

Didn't know that over the phone counts.

You can add another 15-20 on top of it, if it does.

Not sure what makes a DD Do unofficial. Whatever the case, I invited everyone.

PS Nice meeting you Asher!

It's AsherO on the blog please. :P

Didn't know that over the phone counts.

I met him in person, but that was for a deal. How many did you meet that you weren't dealing with? :P

Oh, and let me add, I met them in individual meetings, not as a group.
