Cleanliness is important! Wash the coffee pot every day for peak
flavor, and wash your hands before serving food and beverages.
<P> To make the cafe inviting to customers, wipe up spills from tables
or floors when there are no customers in line.
<P> Shop around at local bakeries to find the best baked goods.
If you tell them you are opening an Internet cafe, many bakeries
will bring you a free sample plate of breakfast pastries.
<P> Get plenty of change and small bills in the morning in case the first
few customers only have large bills.

You are in a maze of twisty little RFC 822 headers, mostly alike. To the

be the letter "A". To the north is another RFC822 header. There is a

The trophy case has clearly seen better days. It has different sections

And you think everybody in "the press" knows everything? Have you ever
tried e-mailing a random publication in Vancouver or Halifax to see whether
they'd tell you how to get in touch with the local phone company?
<P> Try typing "XXXXX Illinois telephone" into a search engine and see
what it says. Many cities have a general links page maintained by some
public or private organization. Or find the city's Chamber of Commerce
and ask them.
