Holy crap: Carnegie Mellon has an organization called KGB, which is (according to their site):
- an informal, co-ed social organization at Carnegie Mellon University
- almost 99% fat free.
- an eccentric bunch of nerds, geeks, freaks, visionaries, outcasts and ne'er-do-wells, who plan on being on the right side of the guns when the Revolution comes.
- by law, not more than 5 percent insect parts or animal hair.
- NOT yet available in Oregon, due to obscure long-term repercussions of the Hawley-Smoot Tariff.

Once again, just so you grasp my feeling about this: holy crap.
(... and why aren't we doing this sort of thing here at Tech?)

I think you guys are the most analogous thing going on at Tech... but the flava is still a bit different. They seem like an amalgamation of like psiu and FSU's OAF (http://oaf.hackmode.org) and my friends from highschool... only it looks like there're hoardes of them...

(... like at least half a dozen kids from CMU on okcupid mention it...)

You're mostly right, though.

Because sadly, Georgia Tech is overrun by conservative, non-visionary or even cool people.

Party poopers... don't know what is good for them

well, there's nothing to keep us from forming up the CT CIA...

and haven't i been prodidng folks toward starting a cult or GTSI for a good long while [neither has picked up any other followers however... but i think i simply lack the charisma to actually do the follower gathering]

also, i must dicur with ross that the fact that tech is full of conservative, non-visionaies [guilty myself] stops it... i think PsiU has just fit the part well enough

Wow, we've got to get these guys to go inter-collegiate.  That's just all there is to it.
