I am looking for a good pulmonary/respiratory/asthma doctor in the North
Reading / Reading / Stoneham / Andover / Wilmington / etc. area. They don't
have to be exactly in these cities, but the general vicinity would be nice.

Thanks.

Regards,
Steve.

No need - a towel and a firm grip on the cat's shoulder's will make it
impossible for the cat to get its claws into anything that matters.  Even
if the cat was more of a gymnast than any of mine have ever been, trimming
the claws with nail-clippers would do it.

Warm water won't bother it as much, either (cold water will make it
*angry*).

De-clawing a cat is a pretty unkind thing to do; sometimes it's necessary,
but not in this case.

   *	   Greetings from The MIT Entrepreneurs Club	   *

re: The E-Club's 5th Year Multiple-Purpose Party on Saturday, 30 Jan,
beginning at 4pm in both The Muddy Charles Pub and Morss Hall, is
open to all per the fee schedule previously posted.

(1) ALL MIT and Wellesley students, presenting their ID if asked to,
may attend at the same rate as "kids" ... $3 (three dollars) each;

MIT and Wellesley students must present proof-of-age in order
to get into The Muddy Charles Pub, if they choose to augment their
pizza with beer, otherwise students are invited to party with
E-Club and MIT alum and families and kids in Morss.

The "Party" component will go as late as music and other
"entertainment" lasts, but not later than midnight in The Pub.

(2) Note to all interested in fine art and related enterprises;

A newly added activity in Morss:  A Maine-based member of
the E-Club has put up the funds for the widow of the late
Maine painter Robert Goodale to organise and catalogue his work.

Robert Goodale (Yale) was a direct descendent of Nathaniel Bowditch
(whom sailors among the readers of this list will immediately recall)
and who spent the last 40 years painting (art, not boats).

Saturday night will include an opportunity for members of
The MIT Community to see slides and view a couple of representative
paintings and discuss and crit the work to help Goodale's wife
and friends decide where next to take the collection.

If the work is sufficiently "cutting edge" (in the opinion of 
MIT's curators) for acquisition consideration here, we'll work to
obtain a donation of one of the works as The Club's "commission"
for our collective critical opinion (on Saturday).

This should be an interesting and fun experiment and an opportunity
to discuss fine art and related enterprises with the artists
coming down the coast with Mrs. Goodale, and a nice change from the
usual high-tech start-up thinking with which we are "normally" obsessed.

NB: The work of Goodale shall not be for sale at the party, nor
is the crit session to be interpreted as a pre-view or other marketing
routine somehow worked into the party. Rather, we'll provide
the same service we do for people presenting raw ideas or developed
products looking for answers to the not-rare question "what now and how?"

Please mention this session to people you think would like to attend.

For further information please call us at 253-2000 or try
me at home during the _day_ in Cambridge at 864-4039.

Thanks,

Probably some of both, but there is a third factor that you are
leaving out: more of these crimes are considered by people to be
crimes, and are reported at all, than formerly.  The news usually
cannot report on a wife-beating if neither the wife nor anyone else
talks about the incident.  (Here I'm not speaking of murders, of
course; it's not clear whether you are referring only to murders, or

There are several Olive Garden restaurants in the St. Louis, MO, area.
(It depends on whom you ask whether St. Louis is in the South or the Midwest.

Reminds me of the summer of '91 when I moved back to Massachusetts after 
spending a few years in North Carolina.  My wife and I went to Pizzeria
Uno in Framingham one night during the middle of the week.  They wouldn't
serve me a beer because all I had was an NC license (I certainly look
old enough to drink).  Though I could have gone without a beer with dinner,
we walked out.  Ain't never been back either.

I wonder how many tourists have been in this situation and then gone home
with very bad feelings about this state.

Now *that* is something to look forward to!  :-)
A collection of stores, named "outlets", with out-of-date, out-of-season
styles that didn't sell the first time around, stuff priced at Full Retail
then discounted-to-make-it-seem-like-a-bargain!   Ohhh boyyyyy!   :-)


>are plenty of little restaurants and offices and clubs in downtown Worcester,  

When I was in Worcester with a friend a year or two ago, we drove all over
the city, and were hard pressed to find a restaurant where we could eat
lunch!  Every one we found was either closed or shut down.  We finally 
found one that looked OK, but had mediocre food.

It seems to me Worcester is a depressing run-down place that might once
have had some potential but probably got hit pretty hard by the 
recession (oops, sorry, I forgot, we really aren't having a recession! :-)

Not at all a southern phenomenon, apparently.  While visiting relatives
in Minneapolis last fall, my SO and I were taken out to dinner at an
Olive Garden in Minneapolis last September. (Well, actually suburban  
Minneapolis, Edina to be specific.)  We thought the food was better
than average for a chain but nothing special.  The restaurant seemed
oriented to families with kids, and I must admit, the staff did seem to
handle kids well, even rambunctious ones.  Does anyone know who the
corporate owner is?  Our relatives thought it was one of the big food
companies, maybe General Mills?

Wow, there's an Olive Garden in New England?  I ate at one in Orlando several  
times over the summer and really liked it.  It's not as good as a non-chain  
Italian restaurant, but it's MUCH better than Papa Gino's, and slightly better  
than Bertucci's.  I thought they were just a southern phenomenon.

Yep, General Mills.  I have a "girlfriend-in-law" who works for General
Mills and always sends us a huge General Mills "CARE" package for
Christmas.  This past year's included a coupon for Olive Garden (and we
thought it'd go to waste -- now we have a reason to travel to Rhode Island
:-) ).
 
Oh, and you know what else General Mills owns?  Red Lobster.

The registry picture ID is almost useless since there are so many

Phoebe,
   Yes, I have to agree that RI isn't all that bad. But what you mentioned
about meeting people is also a problem for those of us near 30 too! It
seems the bars, clubs etc. are all too plastic. 

And I have to disagree with your sons comments about the weather, it
doesn't suck 'some of the time', it sucks ALL the time. :)
