Madeira Seminar

Post by Roy Hersh »

Tonight was an 18 person Madeira seminar here in ATL. One person is a subscriber, the rest were total strangers. Very wine savvy group and half of them will be coming to Port seminar tomorrow night. There was an even mix between novices and serious lover of Madeira. Tough questions, but I loved their enthusiasm. Wish I could do lots more of them!

Roy, pardon my confusion, but was that event held in Atlanta, Georgia?

Yes, ATL = Atlanta, GA.

Why do you know one of the participants?

No, I do not - simply confirming the abbreviation.

Apparently our culture has come to adopt airport codes to represent locations, to the point of even putting them on professional team jerseys.

Whether to put ORD or MDW on the uniforms here would be a very hot debate here, though I'm sure the Cubs would have ORD and the White Sox would have MDW.
