You picked a cold time to come! Of course, given the weather so far this year, it may not be so cold...

Unfortunately, you'll have just missed the grand annual gathering of ANC-based FTers for New Year's Eve (complete with a display of fireworks that usually manages not to set anything on fire). I won't be around (though that could always change...), but if any of the remaining ANC folks are in town, still alive, and sober, you might have some luck meeting up.
