Oath of the Tennis Court : the adhoc association meets in the amphi theatre

The avid followers of history would remember the story of the "Oatch of the Tennis Court"
where the delegates of the National Council chose to meet in a tennis court in 1789 when their council building was locked up by King Louis XVI.
Well, it wasnt so bad here. The newly forming adhoc committee tried meeting in the newly forming club house, but found the one usable room was rendered unusable overnight by some fresh construction work. So, we decided to meet in the Amphitheatre on the 13th of September,2009. The key decision was to write a very formal escalation mail to the Vice Chairman , Mr Ravi Menon on various delays and open isues that are frustrating the Magnolia apartment owners.
We may not create something as significant as the French Revolution, but we sure stimulated some action with the escalation. I am sure some of us, the early movers, will remember this picture for a long time.
