1. Let's get the ball rolling. Keep posting about it; it will surely happen.

2. I think there's a disagreement on location.
We wouldn't have this problem if we weren't so spread out.

I'd like to take advantage of Summer while we can and do something outdoors, myself.

I'll ask Susang what she thinks.

4. Can we drink there?
Actually I think Bughouse Square would be a nice place. But again, I'm not sure if we can imbibe.

6. I was in Millennium Park last Sunday....
And lot's of people were drinking. Don't get the wrong impression, 'cause I've been a real teetotaller lately.

We'll think of something I'm sure.

7. How's about a tuesday DU happy hour
Somewhere hooked up with wi-fi, so we could communicate with our Boston bretheren?

I realize it may be too short notice but I do think that at some point in bthe future this site ought to work on a nation wide (or world wide) DU meetup, with some laptops at each location, maybe even webcams, and a special thread connecting all. Maybe election night.

Anyway, I am up for a Chicago meet up...

8. That's an intriguing idea...a nationwide DU Happy Hour!
I like that. :-)

I'm up for an Chicago DU get together, definitely. Moody's is fine with me (and close by!)
