This sounds ideal. I agree with Andy that Coogan's just can't really cover what
we want to be doing with some of these technical meetings. It's great for having
a beer and talking about stuff, but when you want to present ideas/technology it
just won't work.

Here's my vote for taking things to Vernon Hills.
