last night at a nice cafe (circa 9pm eastern standard time) mailed to my wife:::

there are a couple women knitting shawls and a guy reading the dayton voice on the couch across the room. there's what apears to be a couple at the window (on tall chairs) each with a laptop and the fellow nibbling on a late dinner. there are more people walking in, but the atmosphere remains cozy even though the front door is open to let in the evening air.
