Yeah, three ways to find each other:
1. Vanagon.com decals on your windows (but I'm not sure there are any more
of those)
2. Put a sign in your windshield "I'm on the vanagon list, are you?"
3. Post your cellphone numbers (on the list, now) so you can phone each
other when you get there. Or just send them to others who say they are
going to BBtB, if you don't want your cellphone number to be public.
