[Chicago] Fwd: March meeting

[Brian Ray]

I propose we take Massimo up on his offer to host for March in order  
to keep moving around. It also will be a great venue for this meeting  
in particular. If it pleases those who loved Sully's, we could  
consider rotating back in April.

Any last objections? Massimo, if we let you know by the end of the  
day, does that give you enough time to reserve or is it already too  
late?

Either way, this will be a good one.... :)
