Thanks for asking...I work @ GE plant in/near Erie, PA as an assembler in the AC/DC Propulsion division dealing with Locomotive/Oil-Drilling motors/Motorized-Wheel (giant earth moving dump trucks used for mining).

Everytime I go to Pittsburgh I see some VX's prowling around and I believe most do not know about this site. Would love to have a Pittsburgh based meet somewhere with anyone interested invited. Some brainstorming ideas:

1) MARS....perhaps Max & Ermas?
2) Pittsburgh....Carneigie Science Center with IMAX theater....
"Hooters" @ Station Square...
3) Butler/New Castle Area.....Moraine State Park....McConnells Mill State Park....
4) Erie........Presque Isle (Peninsula) State Park
