What's this about "starting next month"?

I put a comment - we've been doing this for years.

I called Arties at (703) 273-7600 to comment on their new policy disallowing guns. I asked to speak to a manager and the conversation went like this.

Me: Hello, my name is ama-gi and I recently saw on the news that your restaurant had banned people from carrying guns intoyour restaurant is that true?

Mgr: Welllllllll.................................

Me: It's not true??!

Mgr: It is true

Me: Ok. Well, I just wanted to let you know that I'd noted the new rule, and I don't feel welcome there anymore. I'll be taking my business elsewhere until the rule changes.

Mgr: Ok.

Me: Thanks so much for your time.

HA! Now you know if you had said "My name is Tricorn" he would have changed the policy right away. Tricorn must keep 1/2 of the restaurants in the area in the black :^). We ought to have a bunch of people call them so they will realize just how many people do carry and that it's bad for business.
