Topics depend on the participants; past conversations include parallel universes, health and diet, transportation, war stories, politics, and occasionally religion. Usually there are a couple of chess sets and a couple of decks of cards so that folks can play chess, checkers, and whatever or watch their colleagues play or simply ignore them.
