Good point about room and quiet. I was wondering about the quiet, actually: do you think the security people at the Pantheon would object to our breaking the silence with a reading? I can picture someone taking me aside to say they want us to move to a far corner if we are going to be speaking. On the other hand, I can also imagine them being charmed that we were appreciating the meaning of the monument.

At this time, I think we won't be a group larger than 20 people--possibly only 15.
