picayune nit-pick:

> at the next WestSide Stammtiche on Broadway [...]

technically, the one "on Broadway" 
(I have been there -- once! -- the May [16/] 17, 2009 
   meeting of the local "open street map dot org" group, 
   http://www.meetup.com/arizonaopenstreetmap/
   was there) 
is considered "East side". 

The "WestSide" stammtisch is in Avondale. 

Those driving from Mesa or A.J. might well have to 
   "go West young man" to get to the 
   Location

   530 W Broadway Rd
   Tempe, AZ 85282
   (480) 921 9431 

    but it is still considered an "East Side" stammtisch.
