Hi again New Yorkers (current, soon-to-be, and virtual), I would be glad to see a stammtische work here. I'm not ready to take the lead myself at the moment, but that won't be a problem since it's self-organizing ;) .
Susan (fondly waving back), the stammtische (I no longer know if 'm spelling it correctly) is a German expression meaning "tribe table," which might translate as "salon." Basically it's an evening in a bar or restaurant with a bunch of folks interested in getting together with OS principles guiding the evening - whatever people want to talk about gets talked about, in a group or multiple groups. There's the OS connection, of course. I don't know how different NY really is from other cities, but I would amend Michael's helpful points to say that one week isn't enough advance notice (but a good time for a reminder). And, recognizing Michael is speaking American as a second language (if I'm not mistaken), I might also check to see if the owner is a female before following his suggestions to the letter ;) . -Laurence Hello NYC OSers, many of whom I know and waive to fondly, and greetings to > you too Esther.
