Reminder: I'll be hosting my first "house" filk this century on Saturday, February 12. As many of you remember, I hosted a number of them during the final 15% of last century. I hope to host many more before this century is through. The ending time is open; I again obtained a waiver of the clubhouse rules based on our past good behavior, so we don't need to end at midnight. As for starting time, I'm thinking 7pm, unless a few people contact me and say they really want to come earlier. Since there are so many restaurants within a couple of kilometers, I suggest that it might be fun for people to prearrange group dinners (say, 2 to 6 people, about as many as can meaningfully eat together) just before the filk. That would work especially well for anyone who's attending both this and Eli's tape-to-CD thing, since they'd have to pass right by a number of restaurants. Potluck items are encouraged at the filk. The clubhouse even has a kitchen nook. Directions in a nutshell: By car, take either 101 or 85 and get off on Moffett Blvd. heading toward downtown, away from Moffett Field; park in any unnumbered spot. From Caltrain or LRT, get off at the Mountain View station and walk 1.2km toward Moffett Field. (Getting back late at night is another story.) In the unlikely event that anyone is planning to get here under their own power (e.g., bike, foot, roller blade), Moffett Blvd. is the one street that the Stevens Creek Trail crosses at grade level; go south one block and turn left. Despite the address (500 W. Middlefield), the clubhouse is right off of Moffett Blvd. (The Middlefield entrance is more roundabout and involves a couple of left turns.) Enter on the first driveway on Moffett that is north of the Middlefield cross street (and south of where 85 passes over) and look for a raised glass structure just ahead of you and on your left. --Kanef
