The list needs to be updated a bit. I know for a fact that QQEvan is not going to be joining us.

Airbus320 is not going to be able to make it afterall.

Thanks for posting this FB.

Any ideas for the actual events?

I started giggling here when thinking of one possibility: dinner at one of the 2 Delta hotels in downtown Vancouver. Many AC frequent fliers have probably recieved coupons from Delta Privilege which can be used towards meals. Perhaps this would be a good opportunity to use them! (it might end-up being the largest redemption of those coupons in history!)

Anyway, just a thought, perhaps a crazy one at that(?)... Comments?

Okay... I spoke with robyyz moments ago, and he is feeling a bit overwhelmed by the task of be the chief of our events to be held in Vancouver in just under two weeks. As such, I have decided that I shall take on the role as co-organizer along with Rob. FlyBoy you seem to have shown some interest in be an co-organizer as well? Want to join the fun?

As well, your list above FlyBoy could use some updating. AC*SE would appear by your list to be both confirmed and unconfirmed.

Does anyone else wish to confirm already?

Could you put me down as maybe? I was just in Vancouver in August but would love to return again, especially since my wife has never been.

Worldbanker... hope you can join us

Seeing as how the guest list is supposedly updated and monitored by FlyBoy, I hope he soon decides to fix up the list above to reflect the updates.

I am pleased to hear that joecdn will also be attending the event!

Fisch: There has been some discussion of some people arranging an outing to a bar called Odyssey (1251 Howe Street) at some point over the weekend. (I think it is a gay bar, but I'm sure straight people are welcome). Perhaps you can see if people are interested and if so fold this into your event planning?

FlyBoy I hope that you consider joining in the events at least for Saturday night, if not more.

Your name is absent from both the confirmed and unconfirmed list. I hope that you reconsider.

Fisch: just a friendly suggestion - you might want to throw some ideas/plans for the weekend onto this thread soon, as there is not a whole lot of time left! If in doubt ask AC*SE. I am sure he will have some neat ideas!
