Hey Ron,
I've often thought of setting up a NorCal / BACC breakfast meetup more than a few times, but you are right, they like to meet really early. I did the 5:30a.m. thing once into Dublin. It was scary because you couldn't tell what the weather was going to be like yet until the Sun came up 1/2 way down there. As we were going through the Altamont Pass, Dark Heavy Clouds were above. Won't ever do that again that early...
I'll mention it to a few buddies down there in BACC, and see if we can put something together before the Bash. It would be nice to
