I have met and had lunch/dinner with a few conlangers, namely
Sally Caves, Dirk Elzinga, Kenji Schwarz, David Durand, Dennis
Moskowitz (did I get the last name right? you know, the Rikchik
auteur), and Adam...  Oh, god, Adam, I've forgotten your last
name!  Sorry...  (*blushes*)

Eric Christoperson is in a nearby, but we've never met.

Otherwise, I'm pretty isolated myself.  Not like our friends
in Columbia, Argentina, and New Zealand, but still.  It's amazing
how spread out we are, when you think about it.  How many
countries are represented on this list?  I can think of:

  the United States
  the UK
  Sweden
  Canada
  Columbia
  Argentina
  New Zealand
  Finland
  Norway
  Denmark
  the Netherlands
  France
  Italy
  Bulgaria

Am I missing anybody?  Any list members (posters or
lurkers) from Germany, Spain, Russia, Japan, South
Africa, Australia?

Matt.
