Richard, prayers for your situation, keep us posted, that's all I'll say here.

Now, on to the bar...I vote whoever makes it here first on Wednesday evening (say, 8pm Pacific, 11pm Eastern US time) opens the bar. How's that for everyone? That way Richard can pop in as circumstances allow, guest barkeeps can fill in, and Richard can devote time to what he needs to. Is that do-able? When Richard's settled (and he will be soon), he can let us know. Just my thought...

This morning, coffee and scones, please!
