The SD Meetups are, apparently, better at coordinating voting on HN than any other HN meetup.<p>(that's not a criticism, just an observation. I think it's totally fair, but I run LA HN <a href="http://www.meetup.com/Los-Angeles-Hacker-News/" rel="nofollow">http://www.meetup.com/Los-Angeles-Hacker-News/</a> , and we rarely hit front page, despite having 50+ attendees at most meetups, and 352 meetup members).
