I have a problem that I'd really like an answer to. i hope you can be of some assistance..

I have attended 3 picnics in the last 2 years and have found the same problem at 2 of them. I attended Columbus' Kismet picnic of 1978, and Richard's picnic in Lorain of 1978, and this year's Gay Festival at Meadow Ridge Farm.
