Fran O'Brien's update

Once again via Third Wave Dave, we have an update about Fran O'Brien's Steak House not having its lease renewed by the Capitol Hilton in Washington.

The hotel's general manager, Brian Kelleher, contacted Andi of Andi's World, and he firmly denied that the decision by the Hilton not to renew Fran O'Brien's lease had anything to do with hotel liability issues involved in building wheelchair ramps to accommodate the wounded soldiers for the weekly dinners there.

There is talk that the Hilton may continue those dinners. Whether the property planned to do that before the blog explosion against the Capitol Hilton is unknown.

Kelleher got a lot of e-mails, so the pressure was felt.

Good work, bloggers.

I'll provide updates as soon as I have more to report.

And if you want to submit questions to Brian Kelleher about Fran O'Brien's and the military dinners, you can via Andi's World.
