I went to a meetup in SF once soon after I joined was living in bay area then working on Kerry campaign. I still find this is the best forum for information. I was going to say democrat information but I have learned so much more here over the years, been helped with computer problems, been comforted, had laughs, saw beautiful photography, etc.
