I'm sure this is the case for almost everyone else: I am completely dedicated to our group and would love to attend any and all gatherings, but there just always seems to be a major stumbling block to my attendance.

Jeffy and I talked about the height difference--he thinks we can handle it. Thinking about it, I think we can, too 'cause the feet on our table s are adjustable. That said, we will need a pretty long bridge--say about 4-5 feet. Can anyone make this? (...) (20 years ago, 25-Sep-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
