Instead of me arbitrarily selecting a few dates, why don't we begin with some suggestions from those who are likely to make a strong effort to attend and then I can use that feedback to inform a subsequent poll. As far as locale, perhaps we can poll that right off of the bat. I would prefer we meet in ORH just so that more of the WNE crew would feel compelled to attend and then some of us easties could always even do a side thing at Clarke's....
