I second that emotion.  And I can assure you that the Big Time is truly
much noisier than McCool's. Also, during the first gathering you attended at
McCool's, halloween festivities were going on, but even with that, I 
thought it was reasonably quiet.  But if somebody knows of an even
calmer venue for our after-meeting deliberations, by all means let's
check it out!
