Bryan -- it's not the "mumbo-jumbo" that's a problem, what is a problem is too much noise from the Pt's, it's like a three ring cirus at times!

OK, let's shoot for the weekend of Friday the 27th. How's that work for everyone? (Bryan, I guess you're in town just during that week? If so, we could still meet for a drink.)

Catman -- since it seems like so far, you're the only one coming in from out of town, you can pick the "anchor hotel".... I've only ever been in the Marriott, Hyatt at the Bellevue, and Doubletree in the city. If you make a suggestion, I could go check it out, if necessary.

In the mean time, I'll try to get to the visitor's center to see if anything special is going on in town that weekend. Student, maybe you could take a look too?
