Boston-area folks...

The time and date in this xkcd is coming up on Sunday. As far as I can tell on Google Maps, it's a basketball court in North Cambridge. Anyone feel like checking it out, in true xkcd style, and letting me know what happens?

I'm going to be there, as are at least a handful of other Mudd folk and most of the nerd population of Cambridge and environs (if Facebook is to be believed...)

Really, I should be less than surprised. I hope it's something amusing.

From "hints" at the MIT talk, I have a feeling he might not show up himself. (A friend suggests he could fly kites over the area from a nearby park). A hoard of XKCD fans all in the same place will be fun regardless, though.

Ah, facebook and it's new "inner circle" of hip kiddies.

"in true xkcd style,"

IE, someone making out with him/herself? :)

More in the sense of going to do something that you're not sure how it'll turn out. Though you interpretation would be fun too.

Yeah, I figured I missed Burning Man, so this was totally the next best thing...
