Finally one at a time that should work for me... put me in the Maybe category for now. I'll try to confirm Tuesday. If so, I'll be driving in from the Fox Valley area, can give rides to or from, and if the location is East of ORD I could stop by to pick people up.
So, where and when?

I'm totally fine with either Italian or Mexican, though.

I'll just wander over to the C17 RCC and look for you. Maybe Mr. Pillows will be around as well.

How do I recognize the right table, or should I just wave an FT luggage tag around?

But not the 7:30 a.m. breakfasts downtown, I'd have to wake up before 5 a.m., and I only do that to catch the 6:40 flights out of PSA.

'Twas great. Excellent food and even better company.
And I'll get around to posting a trip report on Asiana Economy just as soon as my legs un-paralyze. Just kidding, it was actually quite nice. My next leg is on the A330, which has AVOD in economy, so that should be even better. But that's 9 hours from now

Glad to hear that you made it to ICN safely. And also great to meet Gargoyle. And to see everybody else again.
As much as I love the lunch events, the suburban dinner events are lots of fun because they are at a slower pace without worrying about getting back to work or which colleague is going to track me down on my cellphone with a crisis. We need to do more of these.
