I too think this sounds good ... personally, I say lets go for the room at
Brandeis, I will gladly cough up money to rent the room, especially if we can have
it until late.  And, like Eric, I have been reevaluating my forces.  I realized
that I wasn't using my units to their full advantage, a situation which will surely
be remedied by next battle (HINT:  don't have your fast but lightly-armored
vehicles moving slowly within range of big guns).

On another note, I wrote a thank-you letter to Karen today, and will be sending
that out in the morning with our donation.

As for a general meeting - of course!  Food, Drink, and ABS is all I require for
blissful happiness.

(...) This sounds great to me, although you already knew that. I think a big room with a big table or better yet just some 4x8 or 3x6 folding tables that we can move around on our own with a sufficant number of chairs would be great. If I have time (...)
