[Aspuru-Guzik group list] Aspuru group social, this friday?

by Cesar A. Rodriguez-Rosario

Dear Group: Many of us have been thinking it would be good to get together after work one of these days to socialize (have drinks or something) to kick start the new year for the Aspuru-Guzik group. Some people are out of town at any given moment, but we thought this Friday after work might work out for most people. How is Friday January 14th, 2011 to get together in one of the bars close to the office? If there are any people that prefer some other arrangement, write me back soon and we will figure out what to do. I'll send more an email with more concrete info in the next few days.
