Longtable Etiquette:

• The Long Table is similar to a dinner party conversation 
• Anyone seated at the table can participate in the conversation
• Talk is the only course
• But a host may assist you
• It is a democracy
• To participate simply take an empty seat at the table
• If the table is full you can request a seat
• If you leave the table you can come back again and again
• Feel free to write your comments, thoughts & questions on the tablecloth
• There can be silence
• There might be awkwardness
• There could always be laughter
• There is an end but no conclusion
