Tory,
I can't come this week, so I am really irrelevant, but I think Owen's is the last firm word on this subject: OD SAID: Steve suggested we meet there (I.E. LUCKY BEAN) Friday for our Friam chat. Let's do that and we can decide if we'd like to change to that venue, either permanently or at least for when St John's is closed. Somebody better take a firm stand or we will end up meeting all over the City. Last I knew, Frank and Hywel were the most reliable attenders. Have they been heard from? Hywel is not on the Friam list, I don't think. I will see you the following Friday, "If the water don't rise and the Creek don't flood," which, come to think of it, it is.

Amongst topics like head transplants and the efficacy of neurotropic drugs for learning (" Just study better" was Rees' response, himself a Johnnie) were a number of questions touching on the same areas that David brought up, about the development and nature of computational models of brain activity.

They are about 150 feet from Lucky Bean. I agree with Kim re the atmosphere at Lucky Bean.

It might serve as a backup when St John's is closed. Personally, I would prefer Downtown Subscription for that purpose.
