When and WhereThe eighteenth Cape Town GeekDinner, aka Radical Rhubarb, will be held on 27 January 2010 (http://www.twentynot2000.com/) at The Wild Fig. Be there at 18:30 for 19:00.
Still NeededGeekDinners are community-organised events. We'd love for you to help out with the organising - sign up to the planning mailing list and chip in if you can. For this dinner, we still need:
Agenda
TalksWe want short, interactive talks - a quick overview of a cool idea, or an interesting way of looking at things. We prefer to stay away from the how, and the technical nitty-gritty, and get an idea of the what or maybe the why. We like to keep the talks short - about five minutes, plus questions. Bring your slides on a USB stick if you have any, we will provide a laptop and a projector.
Talks
Slideshow KaraokeThis is where somebody presents a talk based on slides that they have never seen before, on a topic chosen by somebody else. This month, Christine da Silva presented slides prepared by Jonathan on the topic of "A Brief History of Banking" - see the slides here File:Karaoke-Banking.pdf. Talk VideosAvailable on Archive.org MenuStarter Mains (choice of) Dessert Food and drink will be billed separately per table of eight. Settle at your table. (1)but might contain seafood products in the green curry paste If you aren't a vegetarian but would prefer the vegetarian menu please update your name on the guest list with a (V) WineWe usually get a case or two of wine sponsored for us for the evening. AVWe need AV equipment at the venue. Some venues have this already, but with others we need to supply our own screen, projector and microphone. If you can help out with this, please let us know.

The GeekDinersAnyone can attend a GeekDinner, and attendance itself is free. You only pay for your own food and drinks. Just sign up here (and think about offering a talk). There are 106 places available - book early. Bring your geek friends and loved ones. Please remove yourself if you can't make it. If you want to be reminded a week before about the dinner, sign up to the announcement mailing list (or follow us on twitter). Please indicate if you would prefer vegetarian food by placing a (V) next to your name when you sign up - it helps us give the venue some advance warning.
Waiting ListIf you'd like to come, but didn't make it into the main list, put your name here, and we'll bump you if other people can't make it. If you want to be reminded early about the next dinner, sign up to the announcement mailing list (or follow us on twitter).
ApologiesIf you wanted to be there, planned to be there, but couldn't make it, move yourself down here with your excuse. Or your perfectly valid reason for abandoning us. As long as you're not a Jonathan.
