Thanks to all. Great meeting you/seeing you again. Sounds like I missed quite a bit of fun after dinner by wussing out to catch the last metro back to La Defense.

I woke up this morning itching all over. And my bathing trunks stank to high heaven. *Something* must have been in the Jacuzzi but the hotel manager had it checked out and cholorine levels were OK. Beyond that he didn't seem to care too much but suggested I buy some cream. Thanks, Paris hospitality

P.S. The "Italian" place across from Hippo and Pizza Hut is a bad idea unless you enjoy watching servers bi*ch at each other about opening a bottle of wine.
