Waiting Not Uncommon

I cannot believe that a group of 15 having to wait a few extra minutes for a table in a restaurant is front page news (News, April 18). I assure you this occurs quite frequently, even when the restaurant in question is only two-thirds full. Furthermore, the Asian Pacific American Law Student Association must have a lot of free time on its hands if this tragedy of table waiting is the most important issue on its agenda. What kind of organization abuses its power to rouse accusations of discrimination simply because its co-chair had to wait for a table? Here's a little advice for Shan M. Chang: The next time you have to wait to be seated at Temple Bar, relax and have a drink instead of wasting this community's time with unfounded and irresponsible claims of discrimination. You may find that you enjoy sharing a pint with friends even more than you enjoy complaining about a racially motivated 10 minute wait.
