TSS Coffee at night

I walked in Third Street Stuff Coffee last Thursday night -- wow. I'm a daytime visitor - hadn't been there at night except for an occasional meeting. In the "sun" room, people sat at every table. Two guys bent over the orange and green chess set. The main room was standing room only -- a birthday party for someone named Mike. I ate a mozzarella/pesto salad at the tall table near the open coolers -- that was the single open spot. I watched as the sun room kaleidoscoped into a single meeting of perhaps 8 guys, using a little table top flip chart, no less. When I left the flip chart showed several items, including "People want their govt. back."

Pat Gerhard wanted a place for people to meet, and she got it. And we got it, too. Lucky us.
