i think discussing where we'll be, what we'll be wearing, and what we'll be eating will make the group easy targets for TIC monitoring. i propose we meet at the new costco at the district. the gathering will unfortunately have to be somewhat jason bourne style. attendees would wander around the store in random patterns but not allowed to congregate more than 3 people for more than 2 minutes at a time. we would identify each other using a secret code which consists of carrying a precise combination of items -- for example, cheerios and a copy of ratatouille. the exact combination of products will not be released until the morning of the gathering and can be found taped under a bench at one of the picnic areas at barber park on harvard & barranca. the exact picnic area will be delivered to your home or office by courier in the evening of the 2nd day prior to the gathering, and written in black permanent marker on black paper. to read the msg you will be required to soak the paper in a solution of 1 part lemon juice to 2 parts water overnight.
