See you at the Duke on Wednesday!


Last month I was getting a week of training at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (Yes, it's green work, thank you.), so now I'm looking forward to my first Green Drinks at the Duke of Duckworth.  I hope to see you there.  And, by the way, HERE is the facebook event for this month, should you care to pass it around.

The vote says: It's the Duke!

Thanks to everyone who voted.  The results were:  2 for the Duke, 2 for the Ship, and 2 explicitly not for the Ship, 1 for some place near MUN.  So we'll meet at the Duke of Duckworth for the foreseeable future.  Keep in mind that during the summer, we could be on their patio out back.  We'll keep the same time--last Wednesday of the month.  Cheers.

Another Poll & A Facebook Group

After a week of voting, the results from the polls are in, and fortunately, a majority has spoken in each of them.  Regarding the timing of the meetings, people have shown that existing schedule is fine--last Wednesday of the month, so we'll stick to that.

However, a majority has also indicated that they'd like to be elsewhere in downtown off George Street.  So thanks to Bridie Molloy's; I do appreciate their helping us get started.  But it looks like we'll be going elsewhere.  So now we have to assess where.  The poll below includes some suggestions I've gotten.  Please vote it in and feel free to add suggestions under "Other."

Also someone suggested our using a facebook group rather than a page, which is what we've used thus far.  Apparently, the group allows more functionality.  So Greg Baggs nicely agreed to make it.  (Thanks, Greg.)  It is HERE.  Please join it.  Gradually, we'll make that our main facebook presence.

Vote in our polls

Last night was our most successful Green Drinks since the first (which makes me think I should threaten to close it down every month).

As promised, we're going to re-evaluate our current configuration.  Apropos of that, please vote in the polls below to help us get a sense of what works best for you. (If you're not reading this through the blog, please go to it.)

Free Website Poll  
For the first survey, if your choice is one of the "elsewhere" choices, please specify a location in the comments.  Whether we stay or not, I do appreciate Bridie Molloy's hosting us. 

For the next poll, I've put all possible time slots in the interest of thoroughness, though some seem extremely unlikely.

Personally, I have no stake these choices; I'm fine with whatever suits the group best.  After a week, we'll evaluate your responses and see where we stand.
