Okay, so it looks like most of you are either or, with one specific request for the 13th. Let's go with that date.

It also looks like there are four or five of us who want to do this. Now, on a Thursday night, it may be too crowded to reasonably accomodate that at a place like Carpool in Arlington or Tommy Joes in Bethesda, especially since we haven't met each other before. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where to do this?

I will offer up for consideration the place I invested in, but it is only for your consideration. My place is located in Adams Morgan and I can assure you that it will be easy to find me there =)

But if you would prefer elsewhere, I won't be upset because I know what a pain it is to find parking there all too well.
