The sign next to the kitchen door at our last Baronial Banquet warned the
non-workers attempting to enter that they did at their own risk as we
just might serve them in the third remove.  People who ignored that sign
were reminded that the McBean's (who were about 1/2 of the feast crew)
were hungry.  (For thos who don't know, the McBean's are a clan of
cannibals).
