December 1st I sent out this email, included in full for review:

There has been no response except one, off list.  (That one response was
an excellent suggestion for a different activity that could be held
sometime.)    I have held off putting an announcement of the party on the
website, waiting for some details or suggestions but I appears I should
not wait any longer.

I will be bringing a lovely tray of dried fruits.  Going for a somewhat
"healthy" angle.

Hans will bring cheescake, continuing the tasty tradition.

What will you bring, if you can?

What will you do at the party?

Anyone want to prepare some games or other activities?

I suppose loose planning is good enough for us geeks.

Alan
