Subject:Re: A different term for "Floor Date" From:"Meryl R. Cohen" <merylster -at- gmail -dot- com> To:dvora -at- tech-challenged -dot- com Date:Fri, 30 Apr 2010 16:32:00 -0400
Ignore Date?
When I first saw this message I wasn't paying attention to the Gmail label
very carefully and I was wondering if a Floor Date was some new thing that
college students did or something.
