I understand your situation Doc.
However for me, I am pretty much open mind about the soirée, I go with the Forrest Gump philosophy :''Life is like a box of chocolate, you don't know what you are gonna get''. I would be very excited with this idea, that would be very exciting to not know who I will end up since I find every ladies interesting in the Indy companion collective.
Too bad, I can't come, that week-end is bad timing for me...Again, I wish it will be a successful soirée! I am envious for those who can attend...
Kindest regards,
