[Garden] Meet this week Thursday at 6pm: at Garden

Tue Apr 21 21:27:23 EDT 2009

Hi everybody,

So, I did as Sarah suggested and fixed the times. Unfortunately this meant
that everybody who already took the poll, your data was lost (and I didn't
look at the answers before I changed the times). Oops.

Please, I'm so sorry, but all I can think of is that if you've already
completed the poll, you'll have to click the link again and complete the
poll again. Sorry about this.
