Andy,

Just to be clear, I'm not opposed to Burlington although Kendall
Square or somewhere else on the Red Line is easier for me.  I
just wanted to suggest that, if the time were set at 6, those of
us who had to drive out from closer to Boston (or who took the
bus from Alewife) might trickle in rather than being there at
the set time.  For that reason, an earlier or later time there
might work better (although earlier would probably not work for
those who had be at day jobs until 5 and then had to drive
inward).

best,
   john
