The downtown/UT area seems to be to be a) more centrally   located and b) much hipper, geekier, say what you will. An IHOP in Farragut   definitely turned me off.</td>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve been getting feedback that we need to reconsider our meeting location so more people can attend the monthly breakfast. Some also believe we should change the meeting day.</p>
<p>In an attempt to quantify your input, I&#8217;ve created <a href="http://www.surveygizmo.com/s/261477/geek-breakfast-preferences">this short survey</a>. Please take a few minutes to complete it. I&#8217;d like to use the results to determine our meeting date and location for April, so time is of the essence.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll discuss this further at breakfast tomorrow, which will be held at the IHOP on Lovell Road, 7:30 a.m.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When we first started the Geek Breakfast in Knoxville we established a practice of collecting non-perishable food items for Second Harvest food bank. Over the summer we discontinued the practice for no good reason. We just sort of stopped doing it.</p>
<p>Today one of our fellow geeks, Paul Simmons, suggested we reinstate this practice and he offered to deliver the goods in my absence (I&#8217;ll be on vacation the week of November&#8217;s breakfast). I think it&#8217;s a great idea and so I&#8217;m asking each of you attending this month&#8217;s breakfast to participate.</p>
<p>The food items most needed by our community food bank are canned tuna and peanut butter, however any non-perishable item in your pantry will do. The bottom line is that whatever you bring will help feed someone who&#8217;s hungry. That&#8217;s what really matters.</p>
