Bill, doing "Work + afterparty" is a good idea, except that I'd
probably get hungry during the meeting. I think that if we're going to
do that, then we should schedule our meetings for c. 7:00pm, to allow
us time to chase down some grub beforehand.
And Patrick, I'd like to see that vein, if only once. We could... Nah... :)
I tended to get moody during the bylaws meetings when we got ourselves
wrapped up in something not-meeting-related. Which invariably happened
when we were ill-prepared. Having our board meetings first, with a
well-prepared agenda, should prevent parliamentary hangups and help us
all keep our veins out of public view.

7pm Wednesday would be perfect! Where shall we meet? Patrick, Beth,
have we got a place to meet?
BTW, I don't know Beth schedule. (I don't know anybody's schedule!)
