or

While the linked thread may look to some that we're bragging about what we own , the WineDo is open to everyone. The only qualification is that you have to bring a bottle of (drinkable) wine. Estimated cost of dinner is $75, which includes tax and tip. The majority of wine last year ranged anywhere from $25 - $200 bottle. Everyone stepped up. This dinner is a great way to taste and discuss wine, in addition to miles, points, and etc.
24 Flyertalkers attended last year... and we had 38 bottles.
You're expected to bring a wine that cost a minimum of $25, and a maximum of whatever you like.
We drank some great juice last year. I don't know how we can possibly top it. Flyertalkers never disappoint. If you're not a drinker, you're still invited. They sell beer and other beverages.
Our distinguised wine panel mjm, cordelli, and UCBeau will coordinate what's drinkable. Last year we enjoyed multiple bottles of red and white wine. We could use a nice champagne to start.
Can you join us?
So far: 21 on the way to a maximum of 24. We need a champagne or 2 to start.

We're going to raise the stakes for WineDo 5. Dinner will be wine themed, just like they do on the wine boards.
We can discuss a theme, and the cost of wine, sometime in the future.

Reason: Wine updated 6/4. 21 for dinner.
Since I have at least an outside chance to make it up for this dinner, I should now start following the thread so I will know when the declaration deadline is set.
For the moment, I would ask dhammer53 to please mark me down as possible.
