As most of you know, the "Gentlemen's Smoker" will be held on the evening of
Thurday, March 20th -- probably at one of the local casino steakhouses.
Tiger, Bruce Kramer, and myself have pretty much narrowed it down to a few
places in town which should satisify all tastes. From our perspective, a
good steak dinner seems the right ambiance for such a gathering. However, we
are still open to suggetions should there be violent protest or death
threats.
As of today, I have the following individuals who have expressed strong
interest in attending:
(Listed in no particular order)
Paul Mancini
Dave Wheeler
Kennedy Lemke
Eric J. Holtman
Bill Alan
Jeremy Miller
Art Santella
Russell Rosenblum
Jeff Woods
David Fruchter
Peter Secor
James "Jazbo" Burns
Ross S. Poppel
(Not Available) Alan "Tiger" Wyle
Mitch Firestone
Bruce Kramer
Richard Sooy
Nolan Dalla
(Longshot Attendees)
Jim Rankin
So far, I have 18 names (19 with Jim) which gives us a target of about 15
attendees (we'll assume 2-3 will have commitments which may interfere with
their joining us). If I have not listed your name here, and you are still
interested in attending, please forgive my oversight, and e-mail me a
message. It is not important to know the precise persons who will be
attending so much as we need to give the restaurant as exact a number as
possible in advance, so seating arrangements can be made. Note that I will
be out West the majority of the next two weeks, so if I do not respond
immediately, hang in there. Thanks.
Nolan
