These places are nowhere near as large as we need.  We can get 30 or 40 
people attend a GUM.  We need projectors and electric outlets for 
speakers.  I've seen these panera bread rooms, you can barely fit a 
dozen people in them.  Also, with panera, we're limited by what kinds of 
food we can bring.

I've not been in the Carnegie Librarie's meeting rooms, but I doubt we'd 
be able to do anything with food.
