    Re: HawaiiThreads 5th Birthday Picnic at Hawaii Geek Meet - April 19

    TS, I remembered you wore your avatar last year...of course you are much prettier!. Thanks for all the pictures; I am so sorry we missed it this year. Looks like everyone had a great time. I am definitely making it to MM's geocaching cleanup in May! We drove by the entrance to Kualoa Park the other day, and I scoped out the route to Secret Island.

    Jim, I especially like the pic of the geocachers making their cache, and the one of Auntie Lynn and SP.

    Ryan, you are da bomb.

      Did someone say Light sabers? Super cool Storm Trooper helmets too!

        I made my Event Name tag almost two years ago.

            What were they making with the altoid boxes? From Ryan's flicker pics it looks like mini solar chargers.

              I wasn't watching. LOL But P.K. was...he was trying to tell me what they were doing and I kept brushing him OFF>>>until I heard the two men say they got 7 sumting from it. Battery Chargers.

              Note: They made two different thingys.

                The solar panel they made was able to produce 7.3 volts. Your standard AA, AAA, C or D sized batteries delivers 1.5 volts.

                  Sweet!

                  That would be direct current tho wouldn't it? Would a converter have to be used to power/charge a phone or Ipod?

                    Thanks for a great event, and for sharing your photos! I posted the few I took with my iPhone, and you can also see the slowly growing set of photos across several attendees via the 'hawaiigeekmeet' tag at Flickr.

                    We did have nametags, though they got lost on the table o' tech and gadgetry. I'll have to get them out more aggressively next time.

                    I was so sure this year's event would be smaller than the last, as response seemed more subdued and it seemed like a busy time of the year for those that I'd sought out. But instead, it was a much larger gathering than the first, and for all my worries about running out of food, true to local form we ended up with a great surplus. I was glad 1stwahine was able to take some to the homeless afterward.

                    Here's to the Hawaii Geek Meet III!

                          You guys bring lightsabers? That's my kind of party! I get to be Leia!

                          Beautiful pics everyone!
                          I'm disgusted and repulsed, and I can't look away.

                                Some of the Twitter people where wearing T-Shirts with their twitter username on them, kind of big lettering too so it's hard to miss.
