Work, flights timing, weather and ATC will drive whether I/we can make it.

Phooey - do you want me to change you two to 'Maybes' for Clyde's at Reston Friday Nov 10? If anyone can swing the timings, you can. ;)

Any more definites or maybes or changes for that date please advise me ASAP, and I'll update you to the official milepost 515. :cool:

I'll contact Judd there in a couple days as to a "guesstimate" number for our booking.

Right now we are showing about 11 starters with quite a few "Maybes".

On November 4th, about 30 or so moderators will be coming to the DC area for a moderator meeting. Randy will be present. Although there is an small get-together planned for some of the moderators on Friday, November 3rd, those mods ot attending that get-together will most likely be going out somewhere in the Ballston area. No details or plans a yet, but our meeting is being held in that area & most mods will be staying in the Ballston area hotels.

I'm thinking that it may be a good idea to do an informal happy hour or something in the Ballston area (maybe Front Page or something?) on Friday night if anyone is interested?


And for those of you who will be in Downtown DC that evening.. I and a few friends will be imbibing at the District Chophouse around 9pm. Feel free to join us :)

The District Chophouse is great. A pool table and great bar area upstairs. I'll be there.

I will be there with a couple of mischevious FlyerTalkers in tow.

MileageAddict Oct 23, 2006 6:53 pm

I'm planning on attending both the Nov 3 and Nov 10 events. :cool:

Punki Oct 24, 2006 4:37 am

Terrific, MileageAddict. We look forward to seeing you on the 10th!

It has been too long.

Fantastic!

Alright people - I have been receiving messages from folks about this thread getting way too confusing, with multiple events - who is going to be at which event and/or is talking about which event.

I like how MileageAddict has clearly mentioned dates (it helps that he is going to be at both :) ). Would like to request you to do the same in your posts - just mention the date.

Thanks!

Alternately perhaps the Pre Mod Doo Event does warrant its own thread to get greater visibility - what say you? - put this on the ballott for our own referendum?

ozstamps Oct 24, 2006 8:43 am

pranu - I'd have to agree it is getting hard to follow with 2 things occurring a week apart. :)

bhatnasx raised the Mods/Talkboard drinkies deal back here:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showp...&postcount=579

It seems to be a separate thing, a one-off FT event, and as there are probably 30 or 40 mods/Talkboard members in town (sadly I'll miss it by 2 days as Randy's advice arrived after tickets booked) and it surely will be well attended.

If Sam simply started a thread along those lines, and asked fellow Mods to move posts from here across, it might well simplify things for all concerned to follow. :D

Over to bhatnasx - he started this. :D

GoingAway Oct 24, 2006 8:51 am

My vote is to leave them both and just ask people to specify which one they'll be attending. The purpose of this thread from the time it was first created was for DC based HH's that visitors were obviously welcome to join, but the general target was the local population ... Event for visitors in town, special events, etc were garnering their own thread -- not sure who was the first to start putting these other events into this thread and I for one don't have any major issue with them being in here - but it's for everyone to remember this IS the DC HH thread.
