Re: location options - please vote

[Ian McLarty <kiwionastick@yahoo.com>]

I too like the bingo hall idea. The only downside I see is the lack of walk-in
exposure that we had in the mall. But I figure that we have enough regulars
that will keep us busy in the sales area. As an added bonus, the public won't
have to drag their systems through the mall for drop-off or purchases. But I'd
like to leave this decision to the pallet-people since space is their highest
concern.

Cheers
Ian
