Yes ... looks as if I'll be here this weekend ... complete with an operating SX64. At 82, I'd be one of the oldest folk locally available ... but access to my man-cave? Come-on guys, Sure and the PETs are piled to the ceiling (not to mention the garage full of printers and paper ... nudge nudge, any takers?). Offhand, since the day hasn't yet been selected, I'd be inclined to select Sunday (afternoon) ... that was the day and time last year. anyhow, my phone is (416) 251-1511. Address - 258 Lake Promenade, about 10 minutes south from Starbucks.

John I had to guess your age, but they really want to talk to you :-P ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mary Beth Minthorn Date: Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 12:01 PM Subject: Re: Starbucks // Commodore Party Follow Up To: Leif Bloomquist Perfect, thank you! I just spoke to our director of the campaign and here's how he's seeing the story unfold--he loves the idea of following you and maybe two other guys in your homes, showing your computer systems, talking about your passion for computers (the Commodore specifically), what it all means today...he loved when I mentioned that some Commodore users still make games for the machine. From there we'd follow you guys to Starbucks and watch the group come together, set up the Commodores, etc Would you mind giving me your address? As we plan all of this out, it'd be helpful to have the crew stay at a hotel central to you and this particular Starbucks. Do you think anyone else in TPUG would want to be interviewed and would be willing to invite us into their homes? You mentioned some of these guys are in their 80's...it'd be great to get one of them. A lot of questions, I know. I appreciate your help. We'd LOVE to move forward with this story so as soon as you have an idea of which day is best (Saturday or Sunday), please do let us know.Thanks Leif!
