Bruin Café
Serving coffee in the morning, and wine at night, a "Brown Cafe" recalls Dutch "gezellig"; built with dark wood paneling, low lighting, and classic architectural detail. They are located buildings dating back to the 1200's. The ancestral gathering place nearest the Grote Markt -- "De Drie Gezusters" -- is named after the three daughters of Peter Stuyvesant IV, descendent of the former governor of New York.

Quadrivium: Summer
Educational settlements are where many people come to feel at home in beautiful surroundings. The catalog that informs the safety and sustainability of these "cities-within-cities" changes 100 to 1000 times per day. Titles are unstable, time-sensitive, copyright protected and land in public law. We explore the action continuously; assign priorities, then schedule a separate teleconference to formulate responses to public consultations. Daily colloquia topics appear on our CALENDAR.
