Summary
Mike does not try to attract people. He never tried to get anybody and did no evangelising; if people come he does not mind, and if they do not, he does not mind either. When someone stops sitting he never asks why: if they want to stop or leave, that is fine. This is not like selling biscuits, which can be advertised once they are delicious.

Mention
it's not necessary to get large numbers of people. So I never tried to get anybody.
