*COAT FOUND! * To all folks attending the CBC compilation dinner in Boulder, someone left a heavy men's medium jacket at the dinner at Villa del Prado on Sunday night. It's a dark blue/green "686" Mannual Anthem Ins Jacket with a nylon outer shell and a fleece lining. Please let me know if it's yours so that I can return it to you.
