As i am new here just curious as to where everyone is from?
I see all these posts about shindigs and such get togethers for the movie and was wondering if there were any planned 'round about the midwest?
(or the "fly over states" as we are so kindly called by everyone)
I am in Misery, literally (well ok, its Missouri).

Atlanta, GA.

I kinda wish there was a large map that would show where folks are from... sorta like a large wall map w/ push pins. Even if it didn't identify WHO was in what town ( yeah, some folks still want their privacy, we understand), it would be helpful to know how close a group of Browncoats are and such.

actually this was asked before
(thread entitled 'where y'all from?')
which was moved to the Talk Forum....
and it got really really really long.....
http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=11&t=2400
(it will take a long while to open because it is kinda long...
but I think I mentioned that)

Anyway, I'm also from the fly-over state of Iowa
so I know how you feel!

Well, what do you expect from Bluenosers?

I hear you. You'd think there would be a *sizeable* Browncoat population here in Edmonton, Alberta ... where Nathan Fillion hails from. But so far ... nary a word has been heard.

But in lieu of getting together in person, the virtual shindigs have gone pretty well, IMO.

As of last night I've discovered three more Edmonton-and-environs Browncoats through the VB ('Versal Board) ... and a handful down in Calgary. Woo hoo!

Is it just me or is there something oddly appropriate about the home of you being named Bear...of course, BARE would fit even better if Mal is involved...~snickers~

Oh, and I am from ~mumbles~ Golden, Colorado. And I don't want to be hearing no Coors comments...it's bad enough having to smell the stench every time I drive by the place.
