a certain bar, a pile of similar papers sits on the corner of the bar,
held down by an empty glass. The Mandelbear has come and gone, hoping
to get a post out before his line is rained out again.
/************************************************************************\
* *
* Once again, the Savitzky family is holding its annual "Somewhere *
* around the New Year" party. This year it will be Saturday, January *
* 4th. The seasonal excuses are the usual holidays & our 27th wedding *
* anniversary (but don't worry, we're not expecting presents, just *
* hoping for your presence). *
* *
* As usual, it's from Noon 'til Midnight (or later!) -- drop in any *
* time; no need to RSVP; kids, friends and musical instruments welcome. *
* It's a potluck, so you're encouraged to bring something to eat or *
* drink. (Hard and soft drinks of various flavors will be available.) *
* *
* Also as usual, the address is 343 Leigh Av., San Jose. It's a small *
* green house with a rock garden in front, fourth house on the right *
* going from West San Carlos toward i280. *
* If you get lost, call (408)294-6492 and don't be surprised to hear *
* to hear it answered "Grand Central Starport". *

if (lost) {
Grand Central Starport is located at 343 Leigh Av, San Jose. It
has a rock garden in front (the white picket fence is gone), green
paint, and is bigger than it looks from the street.
if (using(280)) {
Take the Bascom/Leigh exit from 280 (it's just South of
I880/CA17), head North on Leigh (i.e. toward the "center" of
San Jose). There will be a stop sign at Scott (the first
major cross street apart from the frontage roads, one of which
you will have exitted onto) and a light at W. San Carlos (the
next cross street after Scott). 343 is the 4th house *before*
W. San Carlos on the left, which is the only side on which
you're permitted to park.
} else if (using(880)) {
Get off 880 on Stevens Creek/W. San Carlos and head East.
Turn Right on Leigh and find a place to park. 343 is the 4th
house from W. San Carlos on the right.
} else if (taking(bus)) {
W. San Carlos is on the 23, 24, and 85 routes. There's a light at
Leigh Ave., which gives you a good opportunity to spot the sign.
}
if (parking_left_on(Leigh) == 0) {
Go on across W. San Carlos and park in the shopping center lot.
}
if (really_lost) call( (408)294-6492 );
