New York February Domainer Dinner

We will be getting together for our monthly New York Domainer Dinner on February 26th at 7pm at Naples 45.

Naples 45 is a nice Italian and pizza restaurant in the vicinity of Grand Central Terminal. The restaurant is less busy during dinner, which should facilitate good conversation.

If you are not on my email list, please drop me a note and I will add you. Let me know if you can make it so I can be sure our reservation is accurate. See you on the 26th!
