Thanks to the nifty archive on the City Pages web site, I can answer Paul's question and it is yes.
Details were in a City Pages article published last October, which you can find online at: http://www.citypages.com/databank/22/1087/article9845.asp There's also a link at the bottom of that page to an earlier story on the topic published in August of 1998. [Try finding service like that on the Strib web site!] Despite what appears to be anti-union activities by Mr. McLean (I encourage people to read the articles and judge for themselves), I would still say the Loring Caf� and Bar should be allowed to continue operating at this location. The Loring is a unique establishment that really stands out in a downtown that appears to be moving more and more towards the cookie-cutter sameness we see at the malls and along the freeways throughout the rest of the metro area. There are roughly 3,000 signatures so far on the online petition Aaron mentioned in his post. I encourage List members to check out the petition and the comments people included and consider signing on as well.
