Matt,

Orlando, FL has had Cinema Drafhouses for at least ten years.  According to
the guys in Orlando (this was 4 years ago), they had started a movie house in
Dallas and were looking for other sites.  I don't know how they are currently
doing but the idea for Houston would be unique.

Hello,
	I have recently been exposed to a unique experience called "The Cinema 'n
Drafthouse"  It is a movie theater, that has tables and chairs instead of
regular seats.  The theater is a second run theater which means it shows
movies taht have been out for a while, but are still good films(usually). 
The catch is that you can order food(beer, wine, pizza, burgers, nachos
etc) and eat while eatching the film.  The price of the food is very
reasonable, and since it is a second run theater it costs $2.00 or less to
get in.  I am thinking of getting the rights to put one in the houston
area, hopefully near Rice.  Is this the sort of thing that people would be
interested in?  I am from Minnesota, and the one there is doing very well. 
Please feel free to E-mail or post a reply.

Yes, all over the table.

This is not for me - I get annoyed with people talking in cinemas, much less
munching and crunching.

Oooops - the last post didn't work.  Here goes:


We need people to donate blood for the grandmother of a friend of mine.
She is having a triple by-pass, transfusions, the whole 9. She is many
units short of the required number.

  If you can give, please take time to go to the nearest blood center.
Call the Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center at 790-1200 to find the center
closest to you.  

   Just please make sure the center you go to knows that it is a
replacement donation for Mrs. Gladys Williams at Methodist Hospital.
Any type of blood is fine, as the units are credited to her (blood?)
account.

   Many many thanks for all you can do.
Peace.

enough to clean out the packing carbon to test them out.  Each does 10,000
gallons.  The price for each is $200 which works out to 2 cents a gallon

Not quite true... By that time the Chicago Aurora & Elgin was LONG gone.
The right-of-way we are all discussing here would more aptly be called
the old Chicago Great Western (a freight carrier) which, at the time of
the sale was a non-entity, being owned lock, rolling stock and barrel
by the Chicago North Western. Only the section of the trail between
Aurora and Elgin was not CGW. The CA&E and the CGW ran parallel from
Chicago to the Fox River valley area.

Let's keep our railroads straight here... (-8

Subject: Boycott Camille Paglia !
Date: 25 Jan 93 19:34:42 GMT
Organization: University of Illinois at Chicago

For those who don't already know..................

Camille Paglia is a local performance artist, and claims to be a feminist.
She has also defended the practice of date rape. Her argument is that a big
part of the thrill of sex is the danger, and that women who have complained
after being raped by the men they dated should have a more mature attitude
about the whole thing (and not pursue the complaint).

I should also point out that Camille Paglia is a lesbian, and is in no personal
danger if such an attitude were to become widespread. She wouldn't date a man,
so she is in no danger of being raped by a male date. She has pushed the
that any young woman who doesn't share her sexual orientation, or keep celibate
is fair game. The hidden agenda isn't too hard to find here - don't you dare
date men, or you'll deserve whatever happens to you. Such compassion!

This attitude isn't tangentially related to her act - it often is brought up
during her act. Please, don't give this person any business. Don't attend her
performances, or contribute to any organization that gives her funding. Yes,
the 1st amendment guarantees her right to push this kind of attitude, but it
doesn't require us to help her do so. Let's show that we know that there is a
difference between being sophisticated, and being a pig. Camille Paglia is
clearly the latter - and she's trying to get more people to be like her. Let's
not bankroll the effort.

Anybody know when the Chicago Auto Show is? It's sometime in February, I know,
but I need to know the specific weekend (even though I'm posting this from
a metro machine, I'm really posting from Minneapolis, and want to know when
the auto show is, so I can drive down :-)

Does anyone know why the lake is so green?  I first noticed this when I came
back to school this fall, and in my previous two years in Chicago it was
distinctly more blue-gray.  Is it a localized phenomenon?  I live in the
vicinity of 51st St.  Microorganisms come to mind as a cause of the greenness,
but I'm far from an expert on that sort of thing.
Thanks for your ideas.
