I vote for Joe’s Crab Shack, because it sounds like a local place. I’ve been to the Outback; they’re all over the place. And anytime I want to pay inflated prices for a fair-to-middlin’ meal, I can go there again. And I’m with Manny - pants those congresscritters for us! ---

Jack’s Bar and Grill in Redding California. best steak in the country. (Sunset magazing even said so) ---

This is the first time I’ve been able to get on in three days, so I’m a little late chiming in, but Bluesman and I are still up for a meet-ChiefScott-fest. But we are bummed about the tour. Let us know if it’s rescheduled, we’ll be there if at all possible. ---

For those still interested, **Falcon** has accepted the delegation of responsibility for the Aug. 26 Norfolk Dopefest and removed the impetus from my inept hands. She’ll post the specifics soon. Agin, sorry for the cancellation. ---

Can we just make sure that, in planning the meet, when we all go out to eat we go somewhere that has at least a few vegetarian entries on the menu? The last get-together, there were exactly two items on the menu without meat, and I didn’t particularly want either of them.
