The Bettendorf Library for a permanent location would work for me.  Or 
any location other than a public place like where we currently meet.  I 
have a hard time hearing what's going on with all the noise and surely 
can't see what's at the other tables. I learn by listening and seeing 
more than by reading and in a public place with a lot of tables I miss a 
lot that would be helpful.
