Later this week (probably Wednesday),  I’ll be talking to a friend of mine in Cincinnati who directs the operations of a place called “Old St. George”,  which is housed in a former Catholic Church structure.  It operates now as a meeting place,  a coffeehouse/cybercafe,  and hosts weddings and concerts,  as well as the offices of a number of ecumenical organizations.   I still lived in Cincinnati when Larry began to be involved there,  when the first group of people got funding to buy the Church property and began renovating,  putting in sound and security systems,  and the like.  Larry once ran a coffeehouse/bookstore in the SanFrancisco area.  He is also a Seminary graduate.   We hooked up for the first time about a year before the Old St. George startup at a meeting of Ecunet users in Dayton, Ohio in October 1992.
