Tracker turns from his comfy chair situated near a small cluster of other patrons to cast a smile at the newcomer.
"Welcome, friend. Like ~ew, I've been wandering through Geminispace since its early, energized, semi-chaotic, and rapidly forming days on solderpunk's mailing list. I wrote one of the early Gemini servers (space-age), and have very much enjoyed building and hosting capsules and useful server-side scripts in this space for several years now."
Standing and walking up to the bar, he signals the ~bartender and requests another glass of switchel, with just the right mix of apple cider vinegar and maple syrup to whet his thirst and bring a glad smile of pleasure to his face.
"I first came across the midnight a few months ago in the later part of this spring. It seemed like an interesting little hole in the wall to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life for a moment, hang up my hat, and engage in discussions with friends at a casual pace. I'll confess I've become a bit of a regular here this summer, even if I am frequently spending more time listening in on other's conversations than initiating my own, but the atmosphere is welcoming, and I expect you'll find something of interest if you listen in for a bit."
Nodding to ~davidvkimball, Tracker returns to his comfy chair and takes another sip of his drink.
