I don't know either, I haven't enquired about it since I usually have my laptop with me. There is a web site for DIA but I could not find information there. I think that there is an information booth in the center of councourse B which may have the information.

I just got off the phone with Paging & Information at Denver International Airport (303) 342-2000, and I was told that there ARE computers with net access available to the public at "Laptop Lanes" in the Main Terminal. Hopefully they're not 386's with 2400 baud modems

flygirl will be attending too. That makes eight, which is the current number of the reservation.
I'm looking forward to seeing you all there. -QL

The Dinner was a real treat. Thank you Randy.
It was great to meet you all folks - QuantumLeap and dgolds, fellow flyertalkers and Bryan, winner of the latest Omni award, and FlyGirl and Dimples from WebFlyer. And Randy was there. I was sitting next to Randy and was very impressed with his plans for and commitment to FlyerTalk. Randy is the guru of FF miles, but was all ears to what we all had to say about our respective programs. A very enjoyable evening.
dgolds - thanks for the Diners Club referral.

I also had a very enjoyable evening. It was a genuine pleasure to meet with Quantumleap, pguptaO11 and dgolds -their tales of travel and miles was informative and interesting. Thanks to all who attended for making the effort and taking the time to do so.
My thanks to RP, as well, for the delicious dinner. Congratulations to our one and only Bryan for his winning the Omni award, and dimples it was great to have you and Chad along.
PS. Sincere thanks to Rudi for providing the award, it was lovely.

Last night was a fun evening. Thanks, again, QL, for setting it up. And Randy, thanks, again. I really enjoyed meeting you and all the others.
Barolo Grill report: the restaurant is in Cherry Creek, a pretty neighborhood a few miles away from downtown Denver. (And it's just around the corner from QuantumLeap's home.) I arrived at 7:35 and was the last one there! Doesn't Denver do "fashionably late" like we left coasters? The restaurant is elegant and hip, and it was packed last night. I had the pleasure of meeting Randy P., Flygirl, Bryan at WebFlyer, the very appropriately named Dimples and her friend Chad (no FT handle...yet), pgupta011, and our social host QuantumLeap.
The menu at Barolo Grill is northern Italian - pastas and second courses - plus two prix fixe meals. I ordered the Menu Toscano, which consisted of a seared tuna starter, a memorable Crab "Fondue" (one of the best dishes I have eaten in the last few years), delicious ravioli with figs, soft shell crabs, a terrific fresh fruit galette for dessert. Great choice, QL. Everyone else's meals looked wonderful, too, especially some of the desserts, but I'll let the rest of you speak for yourselves. Highly recommended.
One of the highlights of the meal was the presentation of the OMNI award to Bryan at Web Flyer. After a short speech by QuantumLeap, he presented Bryan's with the award, which consisted of pictures from Switzerland and a nice box of Swiss chocolates from the source. Rudi, that was a wonderful gift - I think we were all touched by your generosity.
Now I'm back safe and sound in SFO after two weeks in Denver; head up North Monday (on I-5 Airways) for my brother's 50th.

dgolds: Sounds like a great Italian restaurant that I missed in DEN. Will try it next time there. Seems that everyone had a great time at the dinner...just wish I had been able to make it. Nice to have a meet in Randy's 'backyard' and meet some of the folks we talk to here. Enjoy your stay in the Rose City area...
