Sick of all the "young professional" groups because professional doesn't necessarily imply intelligent?

Want to hang out with a bunch of people who can actually carry a conversation about stuff, make you think, or (gasp) think themselves?

Hate the bar scene because you can't actually talk (where "talking" represents a genuine exchange of information of some nontrivial sort)?

That's the idea behind this group. Hopefully, we can generate enough interest to get a bunch of people with brains together to engage in some sort of meaningful interaction. So, if you feel like your body is too young for your mind, don't usually relate to other people your age, or just want to hang out with some cool, interesting people... come join us.
