Because it will be wastefull... but I don't care really. I just want to
have fun, go see a movie about Linux and talk some chop talk. Anything
else is a nice bounus, nothing more.

The only problem is that I already did exactly that last month and got
only 6 replies from interested people which were willing to pay tghe
same as a regular movie. If we can pull this off it'll be much better. I
only raised the whole sponserhip thing because people don't seem willing
to commit 20NIS. What can I say?...

Already checked. Friday morning is OK. Note that we must order the place
a LONG time in advance. I mean a month or so at least.
