Mallory North, Jr." Subject: Proposed Dinner on Tuesday To: x3j3@ncsa.uiuc.edu, sc22wg5@dkuug.dk Reply-to: Charles.M.North@Rose-Hulman.Edu Message-id: <32FA541E.4BD5@Rose-Hulman.Edu> Organization: Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.0 (Win16; I) Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit X3J3 & WG5: At the end of the last X3J3 meeting in November Jerry Wagener and I were talking about what we should do at this coming meeting for a social event. Jerry suggested that we all try to get together at a restaurant called Battista's Hole in the Wall. We made a reservation at that time for Tuesday, February 11. We are currently scheduled to start the dinner there at 5:00 p.m., but I am investigating whether that is flexible to a later time. I have not been there, but according to Jerry the food and the atmosphere are great. I spoke to their representative last evening, and he said that the entrees vary from $15 to $25. There will be a cash bar so that alcoholic beverages will be separate from the dinner order. The average person spends about $25 there including tax, 17% gratuity. We will order off the menu, but for large groups, the restaurant prefers that we only pay one bill. I am willing to handle the money. Individuals can either keep track of their costs, or we can simply take the total bill and divide it equally among ourselves. Be prepared on Monday morning to let me know whether or not you want to participate in the dinner, and what you think is the best way to handle the meal payment. I'll try to send out another email tonight or tomorrow about the time we have to be at the restaurant. Jerry was concerned that we might be needing subgroup time until 5:30 p.m. or so. Another alternative might be to go early to the restaurant (5:00 p.m.) and then have more subgroup time in the evening after the dinner. Just a thought. Give us your thoughts on Monday morning (or Sunday evening if you are there at that time).
