Conducting an 'airing of grievances' session post-prandial with  
libation in hand seems like much better process management to me.

More generally, and for future reference, the offering of free booze  
is the single best way to conduct outreach to those of us in the non- 
profit world.  I highly recommend this practice.

Best,

Bill
