We had originally talked about doing something simple and cool for high
table, which may be where the confusion came in. He also tells me (now)
that he's expecting that probably 30% of the people who volunteered won't
show.  Well, they're HIS friends, after all. If he thinks 30% of his 11
volunteers won't show, that would be the problem all right.  He apparently
set this up as a chivalric/squire exercise, and I'm thinking of it as
feast service. Culture conflict.
