We're still working on a Michigan meetup to celebrate our millionth comment. Ed Brayton, who has to trek over from the west side of the state, has suggested a more central location (not unlike early Michiganders). Rather than SE Mich, there is some interest in Lansing or East Lansing. If forced to trek up there, I'd certainly vote for El Azteco, but if Ed's willing to plan it, I'm fine with it. If there is considerably more interest for SE Mich rather than EL, please let me or Ed know.
I'm also going to see if I can round up any bloggers who have michigan roots or may be in the area---sort of a mystery guest, as it were.
Keep the email/comments coming.

Well, here at ScienceBlogs, we're heading for another milestone. Sometime in the next few weeks, we will have our millionth comment. If the past is any guide, there will be some celebratory swag, and hopefully, mini-meet-ups. We may have a little Michigan gathering of sciblings, readers, and…
I'm going tonight to hang out with an old and dear friend, Don Reese. He's performing this week in Grand Rapids and we always get together when he's anywhere near here. Being on the road sucks and it's always good to have a buddy around to spend the day with, share a meal with, and just talk to.…

Things started with this post, from Moran, on the subject of a recent lecture by philosopher Robert Pennock at UCSD.…

Welcome to A Blog…
I'm down with El Azteco. It might be a little studenty.
which el azteco? there's one in lansing AND one in E. Lansing.
beggar's and the peanut barrel are also tasty treats in e.l.
Well, if we're forced to do EL or Lansing, Ed from Dispatches is probably going to arrange it.
If we took out all the fluff comments (like the ones I make!), and counted only the really interesting comments and those which make insightful and valuable contributions to the blogs, how many comments do you suppose we'd count?!
I'm always up for El-Az! Let us know. Crunchy's and Peanut Barrel are great too. :)
