[Chicago] meeting time should not vary

I had a similar problem with Loyola. In the end it was too problematic
to meet at Loyola because their bureaucracy needed some other
bureaucracy to deal with.

See, ChiPy is not actually, for legal purposes, a real organization.
So nobody is "responsible". We are just a bunch of people who get
together sometimes.

It may be necessary to actually formally create a PyCon-In-Chicago
organization at some point. So far, though, we have been spending our
efforts on interesting conversation and not on bureaucracy. We have
all been blissfully non-responsible all along, and we have had some
remarkably excellent meetings all the same.
