and don't want to be seen as hassling people: if someone else wants to send out further messages, of course, that's fine with me -- it's part of our traditional organizing of such events

We haven't met there in quite a while.

Some possible places:


Monterrey Mexican Restaurant

Mediterranean Deli on Franklin st (parking can be an issue)

Probably others, but I'm blanking at the moment.
