[POOL] Fwd: Argonne Pool League: Dec 18 Consideration

[Brian R. Toonen]

There's a reasonable chance that I won't be around that week, but that's not really a good reason to not start the spring session on the Dec 18.  We can always play make-up after break if necessary.

If there is a cancellation of pool this means we have a buffer week to account for it.  If we DON'T need to use that extra week to complete the session, this means we won't play again until January 8th.  (That is a four week hiatus.)
