I have to turn my maybe into a no. All hell (OK, maybe just part of it) broke loose at work today, so it'll be a late night tomorrow.

Have fun!

It's close - it does say SFO and not SF. And SFO is close enough to Burlingame to consider them the same place.

Dinner with Michael is worth it. TravelKhatt and I have literally driven hours to dine with him. On the other hand we are insane.

Hell's broke loose at work for me too.

I doubt I will make it by 7:15, however I'm going to try to leave Palo Alto by 7 so that I should be there by 7:45.

Would someone save a seat for me?

Is there any parking over there? Or should I take BART over since I'm coming from Sacramento and maybe someone can pick me up?

There should be parking within a block or two. We've done events in Burlingame before and it hasn't been a problem. The city maintains some free parking lots, too.

Be careful after you cross the Bay Bridge. The lanes have changed when you come out on the San Francisco side and have to connect to 101, and it can be a challenge. My brother drove down on Friday and ended up downtown instead of on 101 towards SFO.

Thanks Tom! Looks like I'll drive in then! See you all tonight!

We're coming from Palo Alto also but I am picking up my GF at Stanford at 6:30.
Will hold space for you, take your time. For future DOs, maybe we ought to all go together!

Myself and Violist are slowly approaching Burlingame. We're at the Barnes and Noble in San Mateo, and will hit the road from here in about 45 mins. See everyone shortly

A most excellent evening (and two of us could not finish our decadent chocolate covered brownies with ice cream for dessert). I'm safely in the AA lounge at SFO now, waiting for my 0045 departure to DFW (running 10 mins late). Violist should be boarding his UA flight about now with a 2305 departure.

Congenial FTers and unlimited root beer for a fixed price -- what a deal (plus they had beer beer as well)! Thanks all for coming!

Thanks for coming out - I had a great time and hope that you
all did too. Sorry to miss jaylenofan - has anyone heard from
him since (if you're reading this, I hope your mileage runs go
well).

He's fine. Something came up that prevented him from attending at the last minute.
