geee - I'll have to try it. trouble is, the only bar i ever frequented was
the Side Track on monday nights (the local sf crew gatheres there ) and I'm
more likely to be greated with "ok, I'm a tech wrtr from XYZ Co!" "I'm with
QRS Incorporated!" and then they'll all expect me to buy them beers....
could get expensive!
