We did hold an impromptu Wake 1.0 at the pub across the street from HP on
November 14th, 2001, and we even got Winston to attend, along with a number
of other notable CSY types.  We even printed up T-shirts (RIP/iX on the
front and the range of years spanned by MPE on the back; hey, it was the
best we could come up with on the spur of the moment).  We gave one to
Winston, but I doubt he's ever worn it :-)

For Wake 2.0, Cupertino division, I suggest the Britannia Arms British Pub
in "Cupertino" at 1087 De Anza Blvd, a few blocks north of highway 85 and a
couple miles south of 280.  I've added it to Alan's web site above.

I already get 1000 virus emails a day now, so feel free to use it for
anything you like.  It can't get much worse.
