Hi, anyone in Ithaca? I'd like to start some sort of Effective Altruism meet-up/club. The lovely people at the EA forum suggested asking here.

One time I was walking around campus carrying a fern and a kid asked what type of flower it was. I stifled my laughter. Does that count as being gentle?

I'm very much looking forward to reading this! Not only is it about plants, I also quite enjoy your writing style. Curious what non-plant-people will get out of it though, unless I've missed some introduction

I imagine you two have graduated by now. For future people who search lesswrong for 'Cornell' or 'Ithaca' I'm here until probably 2018, and if I find other effective altruism-interested people I'm thinking we could start a campus club. Let me know that you exist!
