I’m thinking we need to do lunch again, Twin Cities Dopers. My Friday, August 1st lunchtime just freed up.

MarketPlace at 11:00 AM seemed perfect last time. Wanna do it again?

How come **elucidator** or **Diogenes** aren’t mentioned Gazelle? They’re local, and certainly could make the lunchtime discussion lively!

What if we moved it to noon? Does that work better? (Not trying to take over, Gazelle, just help.)

Only problem is that noon, at any lunch venue in downtown Minneapolis, is very crowded.

Hmm… I wonder if they’d rope us off a section? Lemme give them a call and I’ll let y’all know.
