Yeah - I hear you Neal. FWIW - I'm with you, and would love a quieter environment - but it's really difficult to find an accommodating location, with food and drinks, that also has wireless internet, and is cheap ( read: free ). As we have no budget, I'm stuck finding places that are willing to let us book based on us promising to spend a particular amount in food/drink ( usually around $400 or $500 ).<div>
<br></div><div>Hanson's has been really gracious to us in the past, more or less waiving what I'm signing in committing to spend in food / drink because we treat their staff so well and ( apparently ) are all pretty good tippers ( so keep up the good work guys! ).</div>
<div><br></div><div>Again - I haven't officially booked this yet - but will do so in the next week or so unless I can find a better place. If anyone has any suggestions - I'd really appreciate you doing some legwork and calling the place to see what their room reservation policy is before forwarding it to the list- as much as I'd love to hunt down details on a few dozen places, I figure crowd-sourcing is the smart way to tackle that. :)</div>

For future reference, I'd still prefer a quieter place than Hanson's -<br>
one where we can actually hear presentations and all hear each other.<br>
