Cynthia,

Would it help your account of the votes if we each post the YES number (#) total that our individual vote has added?

Also do you want us to indicate if we are coming alone (1) or with another (2)?

Currently there are six Yes votes and zero N/A. As I indicated, I cast Yes Vote #4 at the time I voted. I believe I observed John Reidy adding the fifth Yes vote, so hopefully the sixth Yes vote would be Tony, unless someone else has voted in the mean time (I thought I saw the Yes vote count climb to 6 about the same time Linda B. was viewing this thread). Yesterday there was one N/A (I think Tony cast, before John R. making the vote at the time total 4 Yes and 1 N/A) that has since been removed. So in summary:

YES
#1 Cynthia Daniel
#2 David Draime
#3 Michele Rushmore
#4 Garth Herrick
#5 John Reidy
#6 Linda Brandon
#7 Tony Pro

Count me in!

Can't wait to meet everyone!!!!

[Cynthia Daniel]

The only reason I put an N/A option is because I can't put less than 2 choices for a poll.

So far, I have 15 people attending. We need a minimum of 30 to do the buffet in a private room - otherwise we will just be in the noisy restaurant. Here is the list so far:

Ashton, Leila 1
Cohen, Jill 1
Daniel, Cynthia 1
De la Vega, John 1
Draime, David 1
Herrick, Garth 1
Marcus, Heather 2
Paules, Dean 2
Reidy, John 1
Rushworth, Michele 1
Spinks, Johanna 1
Pro, Tony 1
Brandon, Linda 1

...and myself, of course.

[Janel Maples]

Oh I hope I did this correctly. I am in for two and very much looking forward to meeting everyone.

[Cynthia Daniel]

Janel,

Unfortunately, you can't vote 2 times, but I've got it down.


Everyone,

There are only 18 seats left - our max is 44.

I have a wonderful treat to announce - Simmie Knox and his wife will be joining us.

[Michele Rushworth]

Wow -- it's worth travelling across the country just to talk to him!
