Would be happy to do so again.
Deb, (help) organize or put people up?

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!

Also, there are decent hotel rates to be had, even in the City proper, if you know where to look.
We stayed at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel when we went to SF last year, and paid just over $100 a night. Not really a bargain accomodation, but a good value for the price in terms of amenities, location and just sheer shininess.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The Francis Drake Hotel says "Complimentary High Speed Internet Access in all Guest Rooms."
Do you suppose this means that they have high speed internet access in all the guest rooms?

Tommy, that can be hard to say, though I would put it at higher probability than somewhere that says "modem jack on phone"

Do we have any local Buffistas in Vegas though? I personally enjoyed my stay there in October 2001, but for people who don't like staying inside hotels/casinos all day there wasn't a lot else offered. My one drive away from the Strip was sufficiently hassle-full with traffic and heat that I gave up on seeing any outlying sights.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Both, depending on what's needed. But I'm not into grabbing control of something that isn't mine to grab - just letting you know that, if that's a point in having it here, I can and will do hotel research, menu planning, activity stuff, and a kickass BBQ. Maybe a spa day, or a trip to the wine country, or a discount outlet shopping thing...
Don't mind me. Babbling. Trying to write - sorry if that sounds disjointed.
Anyway. Point is, help to whatever degree offered if needed.
BTW, I'm going to be in San Diego for an overnighter in August, and the hotel prices are actually slightly higher than SF. That made me blink, bigtime.

What, looking at atom bomb test sites isn't interesting?
I would totally go on the atomic bomb test site tour with you, tommyrot.
Anybody got a Geiger counter they can bring?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
We'll use Ollie. When he starts to glow, it's high.

Yay! We could pick up some sand that's been turned to glass by the heat of a bomb. It's probably not that radioactive anymore.

So, let's say, date vote in 2 weeks or so? The 10th and 11th? How does that sound?
That sounds like a good idea. Let's be sure to let the voting run long enough for people with intermittent access weigh in, is all I have to add.
