Okay, I think I've got everyone in the OP. There are also directions in the OP from Government Center, which is the closest T stop.
For those who are looking, the table will be under Michael. I'm wearing a yellow shirt, blue pants and have a blue back-pack with a Milepoint luggage tag. I'll attempt to be the first one there and tell the host(ess) that people will be looking for Michael or Flyertalk. The weather looks like 60-degrees tonight. Are there any objections to having it outside, depending upon availability? It will make the conversation easier. I do know, though, from past Dos, that most people just kind of rotate tables at will, so we'll probably have a bunch of small tables, meaning that the noise effect won't be as bad. For those coming from South Station, my advice is this: Take the Red Line two stops to Park Street. Get out there, instead of switching to the Green line. Turn left (the Common will be behind you and Tremont Street will be in front of you) on Tremont Street and keep walking straight. You'll pass a graveyard on your right and, after a five minute walk or so, you'll eventually come to the corner of Tremont and Court. Just stay on your side of the street and follow it around counter-clockwise. City Hall Plaza will be on your left and Government Center on your right. A few blocks later, you'll arrive at Kinsale. Note: It is a very nice walk from South Station and will take about 15 minutes. Turn right onto Atlantic Ave and walk to Congress Street (If you hit the Intercontinental, you've gone too far.). Turn left onto Congress and walk for about ten minutes (give or take) until you get to the corner of Congress and State. It is a large intersection, with the Boston Massacre site and Old Statehouse right in the middle. Turn left onto State (You'll have to cross State and then cross Congress.) and walk a few blocks (State Street becomes Court Street here.). There will be a Staples on your right, followed by the Government Center T stop. Just follow the directions in the OP from there. Mike |

I'll probably just walk from South Station since i'll be arriving at 4:40 due to the bus schedule =p
And I'm fine with outside. |

They all say "Marathon Man" and have a ":p".
