<DIV><SPAN class=337181203-30012006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>We
need to discuss this from time to time, and this is a good place to do it.
It's about the only place I'm going (I have enough to do in my life to go
chasing after discussion groups, thank you). With the exception of Their
Excellencies' decision to try to make the populace meeting less of a
"business" meeting and more of a social/educational meeting for the populace, I
haven't heard or read much discussion on this particular list about the
subject. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=337181203-30012006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Do I
have any suggestions? I think that their excellencies and our seneschal
are on the right track; allow the populous meeting to be a social
gathering. I keep kicking myself that I forget to wear garb, even if it's
nothing more than throw a simple "rig" together of shirt, pants, boots and
belt. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=337181203-30012006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I wish
I could find a "better" place for a meeting; Ryan's fits the bill, and we can
eat while we're there, but we're kind of distracted by some of the everyday
things that go on (the ice-machine of DOOM!, the wait staff, other parties in
the other room, etc.), and we can fill the room up fast with the group that
comes in every month already.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=337181203-30012006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>But
it's not easy finding a meeting place open to the public that holds 20+ people
for the price we're willing to pay (nothing). It gets harder when we try
to take into account how to get to the meeting place, what times,
environment. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=337181203-30012006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>So I
don't have a whole lot to suggest right now.
Sorry. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>It sounds as if it's not a really popular idea. I thought it was worth
floating to the populace for commentary, though.</DIV>
