There`s a kind of programmer`s trick been played here.
Someone calculated that if you got enough bodies moving in one
direction then the rest would follow along as nice as little
lambs.

Except that there was one person I wanted particularly to
speak to it was no matter that I missed the crowd as I
thoroughly enjoyed the more intimate group at the old venue
and I guess I KNOW which restaurant we`ll go to next month.
(THE GREEK PLACE!)

What is interesting is how `critical mass` in Unix mavens was
used to effect a change in venue.
