Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

More Important F2F Info
Kristin and I have been looking at the numbers and we're a bit worried. Here's something that we'd like to look into.
Right now we've got a big room reserved for Saturday night and currently it's seeming like we're going to have low turnout for this F2F. If that is truly the case we're thinking about finding out about cancelling the big room and just having the party Saturday night in the hospitality suite.
Thing is we don't even know if this is going to be an option with the hotel, but if we are even going to explore it, then it needs to be done very very soon.
I've not wanted to press on this, but since we are not even half way to the money we need to raise, I'd like to get a bit of a headcount on folks who are planning to attend. This is not a cry for folks to send in money if they are going to be there. I'm simply trying to find out how many people we are looking at so that we can look at all of our options.

Brendon and I will be there, and probably my friend L. I'll check with her later. We have been total slackers and haven't made reservations or sent $ to ND. But we will do both. That will be 2 rooms we are reserving because although she is a friend, not that good a friend. When we discussed it we were talking Fri, Sat, and Sun nights.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'll be there, but staying with my parents.
