| Hi, all. I was taking some time this holiday weekend to reflect on the summer, and I realized that the summer's approaching half-over. I don't know how many of you all are planning to do EIP, but I am. I'm taking Eben's warnings to heart, and I'm planning to not let it get to me (planning, right!), but there are a few interviewing organizations I'd like to meet, and I think I could use the interviewing experience.
I was thinking about EIP, and how it can be an emotionally demanding time (I think Eben put it a bit more colorfully). I think it might be useful to convene a meeting of a Law and Contemporary Society Society (LawContempSocSoc) of any LCS alumni or interested parties to get together for dinner during August and support each other and talk. Proposed society motto - "de omnibus dubitandum" [doubt everything]! | | Thoughts?

> > | Devin - I think this is a great idea, and overlaps somewhat with Nona's idea of continuing our physical (not just virtual) meetings after the end of the semester. I'd certainly be interested in meeting soon to talk about EIP, the tools of the trade, and perhaps our summer experiences as well. Does anyone know how to reserve a room? Getting a conference room or something like that some night in August might be valuable.

I also think an LCSS could be a good structure for helping each other out with other stuff moving forward as well. For example, I'm interested in learning about how to better use technologies, like wikis and encryption, for legal work. I use the Thunderbird client to manage email, and I'd like to get some practice using PGP to encrypt emails, which I think will be important down the road for keeping client data secure. I don't know much about public key encryption, except that it exists and is pretty good. And as some wag once put it, the right to speak PGP is the right to speak Navajo.
Thoughts?
