But I really think you ought to. Why? Because you're benefiting from the event happening. (Whether you're just watching the caller or just listening to the band, and not dancing, nonetheless there wouldn't be any point for you in being there if somebody hadn't rented the hall and hired the band and the caller.) Pay the door fee and help the organizers pay the rent. I think it's only fair. -- Alan -- =============================================================================== Alan Winston --- [email protected] Disclaimer: I speak only for myself, not SLAC or SSRL Phone: 650/926-3056 Paper mail to: SSRL -- SLAC BIN 99, 2575 Sand Hill Rd, Menlo Park CA 94025 ===============================================================================
