[Michael Paoli]

PHYSICAL VENUE CHANGE THIS EVENING! --> KING KEE 101 CYRIL MAGNIN ST. 
SAN FRANCISCO

Henry's Hunan had an unexpected availability issue: "
Sorry we are temporarily closed for
blower maintenance.  Normal business
hours resume tomorow at 11am"
Talked to manager there - they're currently working on it and have been 
for hours ... and
are expecting (/hoping) to be back to business as usual for tomorrow 
morning's start of
regular business hours.

So, tonight for physical: KING KEE 101 CYRIL MAGNIN ST. SAN FRANCISCO
