Gents, I would highly recommend this--and would be the first to volunteer, but I'm too getting-doxed-averse at the moment (wife, kids, mortgage, new job, etc.) to join in. But for you (likely younger) guys who might not have as much on the line and can stomach the risk, I would encourage you to get together as frequently as possible. Real-life, in-the-flesh connections are infinitely stronger than purely internet ones. And we need to regain our social capital if we are to succeed.
