Yes, I agree escorting is no fun for me either. That is why I proposed
PacMed but as other options for location this one is also not perfect.

Do the other venues have ethernet network? I didn't see it in the list of
criteria you sent earlier.

It is true that you can't use Amazon wired or wireless network but recently
Tullys has made it's wifi free and there is a Tullys nearby to the US1
location that anybody can use even if they are closed.

I believe the Amazon ruby community will appreciate and participate more
even if we do it once a month (we used to do it third Tuesday of the month
for a more presentation style monthly meeting).

Thank you for your consideration.
