San Francisco's next social event for techies and their friends,
sig-beer-west, will take place at 6:00pm on Saturday, May 15, 2004 at
21st Amendment Brew Pub[5] in San Francisco, CA.

21st Amendment's selection of beer[6] includes their own delightful
brews, and a fair selection of guest brews.  They have a full food
menu[7] and I can personally recommend the sweet potato straws and the
grilled Monterey Bay squid.  Festivities will start at 6:00pm and
continue until we've all left.

They're about a fifteen minute walk down 2nd St. from the Montgomery
BART station.

(all of legal drinking age) who might enjoy lifting a glass with
interesting folks from all over the place.

sig-beer-west FAQ

  1.  Q: Your announcement says "techies and their friends".  How do I
         know if I'm a techie, or a friend of one?
      A: Well, actually, you don't have to be a techie to attend.  You
         just have to be able to find the sig-beer-west sign at this month's
         event.  That's it.  Simple, huh?

   2. Q: I'm not really a beer person.  In fact I'm interested in
         hanging out, but not in drinking. Would I be welcome?
      A: Absolutely! The point is to hang out with fun, interesting folks.
         Please do join us.

   3. Q: Is parking difficult in the city, like maybe I should factor
         this into my travel time?
      A: Yes.

   Note for May 2004:  21st Amendment is a fifteen minute walk from
     Montgomery BART. You may want to consider BARTing[9] and not worrying
     at all about parking.

   ______________________________________________________________________

   sig-beer-west was started in February 2002 when a couple Washington,
   D.C. based systems administrators who moved to the San Francisco Bay
   area wanted to continue a dc-sage[10] tradition, sig-beer, which is
   described in dc-sage web space as:

       SIG-beer, as in "Special Interest Group - Beer" ala ACM, or as in
       "send the BEER signal to that process".

   The original SIG-beer gathering takes place in Washington DC,
   usually on the first Saturday night of the month.
