In my case, flares might help. 

OK - now I do _not_ remember a round table set for six. Are we sure we are
all talking about the same place??? And I was looking for books, hats,
obvious signs. Did you happen to notice a vaguely red-haired guy with a
blue-and-white(ish) AT&T Jacket on looking like he was looking for someone?

I just can't help but think we were in different places! Next time, a camel
banner and flares, definately. 

Is there a next time in mind?
