I would like to suggest that we might plan a Zoom listmeet at 4:00pm EDT on
a date to be determined. If those farther west in the USA could make time
during the afternoon it would certainly not be too late, 9:00 pm I think,
in the UK. Another advantage of such an hour is that it should allow folks
in the eastern US to be involved and still finish in time for their evening
meal. Just my $0.02 on the subject.
