[nabs-l] phone numbers at night clubs

[J.J. Meddaugh]

What about one of those digital voice recorders, the cheap ones that only 
cost $10-20?
If you can slate well that works well, and you can get a stylus cover to 
solve Adrianne's comment about getting poked with one.

I definitely would not take a notetaker to a club. Think about how you would 
look to others carrying one of those things around. The only exception I 
could think of is if you could fit it in a pocket.
