First official contact with a fellow hypographite would be Aaron (GAHD). A couple friends of mine brought me to a party out in the woods. The bonfire was getting low so I left to find some wood when I found GAHD trying to collect some wood. I hung with him trying to help when we came to the conclusion that we should get an axe and cut some wood. I'm not sure if he was a member of Hypography then, but he was the one to introduce me.
If we don't count the person who introduced me to it, my first meeting with a hypographite would be October 11th 2005. After a looooong flight, and leaving him standing in the airport for over an hour after my flight had arrived (my luggage was delayed in Germany), I met Mr. Guldvog, where we spent a week up at his beautiful cabin. Then after a nice relaxive period (OMG! Two web geeks without the internet for a week! Screw Chinese torture!), I got to spend my last week exploring Oslo and meeting his wonderful family.
Wow, fellow hypographers.
well, like Killean says I met him at a drunken bush party, and he was nice enough to walk me to his place and bring an axe back (the stuff horror films are made of).
I also met a certain 'ghostblaze' at my friend Mike's highschool, he's a computer nut too. I met him while I was sitting in the lounge area, where surprisingly nobody noticed I was out of place for a few hours.
Other than those two i don't think I've had the pleasure.

___As far as I know I only know that I know Racoon, who I have never seen without his mask except here. I may have met him a decade ago, or I may have met him this coming Spring. Whatever the case, I make an effort to meet as few people as possible within visual or auditory range. I am not opposed to meeting people without knowing it, if they don't know it either.
___Insert prolonged awkward silence;.......................uhm................ ....uh................ Oh! I know; this is funny too. Just looking at peoples family photos makes me uncomfortable (visual range violation ), but one time I went into a K-Mart with friends after we left a bar where they were kidding me about shyness & I embarrased them by going through the photos of strangers that were waiting for pickup. Touche!

well, i suppose this would count, though it isn't nearly as big a deal as some kind of vast travel or rare meeting. . .
armofreek, orbsycli, inside the sun, tartanism, and myself all went to the same middle school the same years. shortly after that, i met drip curl magic and bpj g 2fat in high school.
i believe orb was the first hypographite, with sun and drip following, and the rest coming on shortly after that.
i'm very proud that our social circle has evolved so well mentally.
i love all of you guys
Actually, me and loricybin recently had a chat about how cool it would be to have some sort of hypography party.
We came up with the conclusion that if any hypographite ever won the lottery, then that person should take a small share of that money and pay for everyone's flights to the party destination.
Wouldn't that be a hoot?
well, it's nice to think about, anyways.
I would like to meet some more hypographites. The only ones I know at this point are people that I knew pre-hypography.
Now I'm curious... are there any other hyprogrophers living in the bay area, CA (besides mr. freek, orby, mr. cybin, mr. sun, tart, and mr. 2fat)????
