I think that a poll is in order.  Bruce, would you please post
the question?  

My concern is that a lot of our membership are unemployed.  These
are the folks who come to dinner before a meeting and have a coke.
I'm concerned that we'll alienate if it's very much.  $12 is cheap,
$23 isn't.

Should we consider a place that'll give us a big reservation, but 
without the fixed price menu?  

regards,
rob
