Funny, I recall being told that officially, I wasn't supposed
to bring any drinks but water into the TCS 'clubhouse.'
And no food.  Has this been changed recently?

And to represent TCS to the greater community.
TFUG is famous for its diplomacy.

I can testify from personal experience that if people
shows up at a special interest group on a regular basis, the
TCS leadership seems to think each regular attendee is supposed to
join TCS and pay the dues regularly.

I don't think *all* the TFUG regulars want to join TCS.

>You could spend more than this at one or two of the bar meetings.

When I read this assertion, the first thing I thought was,
'This guy thinks we can spend $45 *per person* on beer
at one or two bar meetings?  How alcoholic does he think we are?'

So I propose a new group (or subgroup) 
for people who can spend $45/night each at a bar.
