Yes, I also loved it... We tried to do it in Mexico, but it was _way_
too expensive (almost as expensive as full lunch - and remember we
ended up reducing from three to two paid meals per day!). Maybe you
could get HP interested in sponsoring it? Or whatever sponsor?

...But yes, your idea is very nice. I am a fan of chaos - out of
chaos, something good will always happen :)
