The Torrington Socrates Cafe Meetup Group

"Howdy, my name is Kelly and as an armchair philosopher I find this group most interesting. I would love to make it to a meet up sometime!"

"Hi Sybil, a big hello. Carl and I usually are very flexible about the Socrates Cafe places and times. I can do a Thursday if you want. By the way, I am originally from Waterbury, one street away from Oakville, Watertown, and my mom still lives there, so we could meet at Starbuck's across from Adam's Supermarket, or some other locale. "

"Shakur, Thanks for joining the Socrates Cafe Meetup. These have been happening in my home up here in Torrington. I don't know if I can do it this week, though. "

"I am always interested in good conversation and company. "

"I don't know how to remove myself....please advise"

"Hi Susie, Sorry you can't be part of the Socrates Cafe. You have to remove yourself from the group, though. I can't do it. Take care, Alan "

"Hi everyone. I'm in West Hartford and would love to be a part of a philisophical discussion group. Not sure how often I'll be able to attend but please keep me posted on events."

"Hello, I heard about Socrates Cafe a few years ago while participating in a book discussion group. We also actually held a cafe and I loved it. I live in New Milford, so I'm not sure I'll be able to attend many events, but I'd love to stay posted. "

"alan, great hanging out with you tonight...check out david cross http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Cr... ...maybe his personality can mirror yours in some ways...maybe not. my email address is carlstone@optonline.net happy merry, carl"

"Carl, so far it is just you and I for Thursday the 20th. I am convalescing from my broken bones at my mom's house in Waterbury. I have my son until 7 tomorrow night. Do you want to meet after 7 in the Waterbury area? PLEASE give me a call at new cell 860-866-8285 or email, as I do not want to ride up to Torrington on Thursday night for nothin'. Take care, Alan"

"whoa, that ain't no fun, rascal!!! i'm booked for the next few days, and i'll give you a shout when i see an opening. boy, are we on the same page, here... my wheels are in a lot of pain, too...i'm going to the doctor on monday to determine whether my left knee needs another operation (had one a year ago) or a partial replacement. sending healing energy, carl "

"Carl Stone, I have a few broken bones! Many ligaments are not currently connected to my left ankle. I fell on ice Monday. I will have surgery Thursday at 1PM. If you want to visit me at my house after Thursday, that would be cool. Take care and write back. I will check my messages before I leave for the Hosp at 11 AM tomorrow, and when I return on Friday. With gratitude, Alan."

"Carl, I have gotten my son back in my life!!! He will be with me Thursday night until 8:30PM. I will not be able to do the Socrates Cafe this week. I will be free the following Thursday. I hope you can write me or call me that this is not a problem. Tel 860-618-2286. Take care, Alan"

"Alan, thanks for hosting the Socrates Cafe. It was a fun night. Different, but I've come to expect no less. Now, where did you find the evening's "Oracle?""

"Just intrested in what this group is doing"

"I hope you can have fun with me in open inquiry about a number of different subjects. People like us are starving for good conversation and company!"
