The 10pm time was one that all of the 6 or 7 mass mobilization people who
were still at the meeting at the end could attend; many complained about
the lateness of it.  Probably the next earlier time without schedule
conflicts would be 8 or 9 in the morning; I'm willing to meet then. Or,
suggest a parent-friendly time, have that be the comprimise time--I'm
willing to agree to that even if I can't make it.
