Okay, now we're geting somewhere!

I got this letter today...

"
Dear James:

I work in the Trader Vic's Corporate Office for Hans Richter, Pres & CEO, and for Sven Koch, V.P. of American Operations.

We received a copy of your email advising Tiki fans of Trader Vic's 100th birthday celebration next Tuesday.

We, of course, are thrilled at this news. I forwarded your email to the managers of the restaurants mentioned ( Emeryville - Beverly Hills - Atlanta - Chicago -
London ) and advised them of your plans to celebrate.

As they are all ( except for Emeryville ) independently run, we cannot tell them what they should or should not do in regards to specials, but Hans will be returning to the office tomorrow and I will talk to him about sending out an email to all the managers involved about your plans for celebration. This is obviously something quite special.

Thanks, James...We hope it turns out to be a night to remember...

Kindest regards,

ERIK ( MR. RICHTER'S ASSISTANT )"

Now that Trader Vic's managers are in the loop, hopefully things will go smoother if the invasion in any particular city becomes as large is it SHOULD be! Perhaps Mr. Richter can be convinced to put Mai Tai and PuPus on special for us...
