[Cynnabar] Tonight's meeting location

[John Wilkerson via Barony]

I was surprised when I saw the room that we were in. It would have been 
fine for a group have our size. I understand the challenges of 
presenting in that room with regards to noise. I can empathize with 
commute times for folks. I was able to walk and it took 10 minutes? 
Getting to the Classic Cup could be a challenge at times. I'll offer a 
vote after our next two meetings.
