Sorry I couldn't make it last night. Like I said on the list I like the 
idea of being a social group primarily. Not pressuring for a 
presentation every month will hopefully get us better presentations.

As for the Eagle it sounds good to me. A more central location sounds 
better, the LCD sounds good, and avoiding WSU parking sounds great.

If we go with the social idea, would we only meet as the eagle if we 
didn't have a social, or would we meet there normally? (If we did and 
could have food, its close enough for Torre's to deliver (but 
unfortunately for John Alexander, they won't deliver Long Island 
Ice-Teas :) )).
