Not SPP, but I bet MM would want to watch.

Here's the article from the Contra Costa Times about the workshop smonster attended. If you have very sharp eyes, you might be able to pick her out in one of the pictures.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Ah. When she mentioned "Suhaila", I was pretty sure that was who she was referring to. Cool!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Oy.
Update:
Only just learned that a few people were still having issues calling the central reservations number (the 800 Holiday Inn booking phone number) about non-smoking rooms.
Here's what you do:
1. Call the HICC directly. Phone number is 415.626.6103
2. Ask for Inhouse Reservations
3. Tell them Buffistas and give them the dates. Tell them your preference.
4. If anyone experiences any difficulty, let me know. Don't suffer in silence. Making this as easy and as stress-free an experience as possible is part of the point-person gig, but I can't do it if no one tells me about a problem, okay?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Did we ever get a group code for making reservations online? "Buffistas" is too long.
eta: Nebbermind. It's "BUF." Duh!

Is there any information people need about any aspect of the booking arrangements that isn't readily available?
Please to let me know, muy pronto, and we can let Laura know; she's being an angel and keeping the page.

Deb, I was able to make my reservation for a non-smoking room over the net, so that works. The only possible problem I see there is that it said there were no double rooms available. I only need a single, so it doesn't affect me, but others may have a problem if that's true.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Oh, maybe that double room thing is why it didn't work for me.
ETA: I called the number Deb posted above and had no trouble. Also, she extended the Buffista rate an extra day to give me checkout on Tuesday instead of Monday.
