Is there a FlyerTalk Local User Group for the Washington DC area? (Didn't see
one here.)
Those "group" things in the forum software never took off.
DC people do get together regularly. You'll want to keep an eye on CommunityBuzz for talk about meet-ups and things. There's a very active thread in there called the "DC Happy Hour" thread or similar. It's just people meeting usually for dinner, but meeting people in person is one of the best ways to ask questions and pick up tidbits from knowledgeable people all while having a good time over some good food.
