Well, that was fun. Great to meet a few more local Dopers (you’re always welcome at Tuesday night trivia) and one from far away, and enjoy some good conversation. The lunchtime beer was a nice touch. ---

\ I had a great lunch! The food was good, beer was great, and weather was gorgeous. I really enjoyed Seattle, and thanks to the three of you and our conversations for contributing to that. **E. Thorp** , make sure to contact me when you come out later this year, I’ll try to get some folks together. ---
