Sounds like my sister. I always wonder if that is the reason for the divorce.
You divorced your sister?

Meetup is like Facebook. You can set up your "group" with little cost to group members. I belong to two, both scooter riding groups - mostly Vespas but all are welcome. Even you guys!

I seem to remember a device from several years ago that a person could carry that was set with certain perameters such as age, sex, perhaps a few others. The idea was that when someone else carrying a compatible unit came within so many feet of the first person, the devices would signal each other and the two people could meet. I don't think it was a great success and believe it would be fraught with problems.

I get a lot of email from the Meetup group. There's an upcoming meeting for shy people, which is almost funny. It's like the joke about the meeting of the Procrastinator's Club that keeps getting postponed. Would shy people be eager to walk into a room full of strangers? 
I was going to start a little Meetup or other group for those of us who have CRS.
For those who are not familiar with the condition it stands for Can't Remember S#1t.
Trouble is I keep forgetting to set it up and would likely forget the meetings anyway.

I would like to go but I have another meeting at the same time.

Nothing worse than turning up late for a meeting, and as you enter the room everybody turns round and stares at you.

Whisper in everyone’s ear, “Sorry, I’m late….I didn’t want to come!”

Having to go to another damn meeting where what ever was discussed had already been gone over ad nauseum, and anything new could have been done in an e mail or a short phone call, might even be worse than being looked at for being late.

I was wondering if anyone would take the bait
