Sorry to say, I will miss my friends this year. I won't have a chance to come out at all so no table of satellites from Scot. I can't wait to see the pics and vids though! Hope you have a good turn out of walk-ins.

Hey Folks, especially those who might have snail mailed their registrations to Peter Ansoff.
It seems while he was out doing the retired life kind of thing, his postal mail was harfed. This is from the email he just sent out Quote:
Also, if you were the fence about showing your models, we do have open tables, and you might be able snag one, again check with Peter. A week from this Saturday, the festivities start.

It's a shame that so many of the regulars are not coming this year. Hopefully we will see a lot of new faces. I was on the fence myself (just starting a new job Monday) but will be there Saturday.

I missed out on the convention discount for the hotel rooms. Anybody know if there are any reasonably priced hotels/motels within walking distance?

there are three next to the Hampton Inn
Best Western Dulles Airport Inn Holiday Inn Washington-Dulles Intl Airport TownePlace Suites by Marriott Dulles Airport and across the street SpringHill Suites by Marriott Dulles Airport and from the look of it, Best Western has rooms starting at $67 for the Friday through Sunday time frame

Expedia.com... you'll get the cheapest rate through them.
In fact, I got $2 cheaper than the Hampton Inn "special" rate by using Expedia. But I booked early. At this point, you won't get cheaper...but you could still get affordable.

All,
If you were not able to get a room at the Hampton at the conference rate, please email me as soon as you can: pansoff [at] pobox.com. I'm working with the hotel and they may still be able to get us a couple more rooms at the good rate. Also, if you haven't registered for the conference and plan to come and exhibit, I need to know *right now* -- please email me about that also. You can pay at the door -- I just need a final table count. See y'all soon! |

Bernie...its definitely more convenient and comfortable to stay in the same Hotel
and maybe Peter can get you a better rate... maybe if you tell them you are threatening to book across the street at $87, they will match the rate? but if you have to, I'm sure you can cancel your room at the higher rate and book at the other Hotel. Most Hotels will allow you to cancel (with no penalty) up to a day or two before your booking. Another reason I like Expedia...I can cancel the day of my booking! (with no penalty). So, if something happens on the trip down there, and I don't make it...
