Shekhar, 

It was good to see you yesterday. I am sorry not to have gone for beer when with
you guys but when I saw the group was breaking up, I decided to go. Let us go
for a beer affer the panel.

I never did end up paying for my dinner. Actually I ordered a salad as well, but
never ate that (my wife is not happy about this sinnce she is insisting upon
increase in my veg. intake) Was that just thrown away or did we never get it?

i suggest we meet at 5:30 for dinner--5 might be a little too early for me to
get there because I have a lot to do that day.  I don't think I would want to
eat a major meal just before the panel anyway.  Alternatively we could just eat
a snack and then have a real dinnner late that night.
