Where to meet?

QMUG/LA has met the 2nd Monday of each month at the L.A Gay & Lesbian Center for the past seven years. QMUG/LA has had no problems w/ reserving rooms and equipment during its first six years. QMUG/LA has had significant problems w/ reserving rooms and equipment during this past year. QMUG/LA is not confident that it will not continue to experience these kinds of problems during the next year. Because of these problems, QMUG/LA has had to find alternate meeting locations twice in the past year. This alternate meeting location is open to having QMUG/LA meet there on a regular basis. Below are the potential and relative advantages and disadvantages of meeting at these two locations.
