SEPTEMBER The first meeting was held at the Hansa Brewery on Wednesday, September 13, 2017.   Nine of the sixteen members who had been sent an invitation showed up. It quickly became evident that we were not an eating or drinking group. Everyone was a subscriber and all preferred recent Commonweal articles.  One member offered his home for future meetings.
