I'm coming out to NY and surrouding environs and hopefully can meet plenty of Buffistas. In planning for that here's how things look.
Arrive in NYC evening on Sept 18th.
Train to New Haven on Sept 19th (Morning)
In New Haven 20th and 21st lecturing at Yale, but hopefully some time free in evenings.
Train back to NYC on Monday the 22nd.
Rent car and drive to Wellsville on Thursday the 25th.
In Wellsville for wedding 26th and 27th.
Drive back to NYC on Sunday the 28th.
Fly back to Los Angeles on Oct. 2
So, I'm not sure who I'm actually near while I'm out there, and who has time, but I'd love to see people and am totally willing to make side trips. With the exception of the wedding and the lecturing at Yale the time is for me to do with as I please. Um, feel free to discuss in e-mail or in the F2F thread.

A total of 123 ballots were cast. Question number 7 may be the first time in recorded history that all Buffistas have been in agreement with each other.
Laistas,
Due to circumstances beyond my control (stupid tooth), I'm going to have to move the dessert party, featuring Deb's desserts, to Friday at 9:00. Please let me know at my profile address if you are interested in attending and need directions etc.
DCistas, it's RenFaire time! I'll be going on Sept. 6...if you want to meet there, drop me a note. Profile addy is good.
Raquel's news also goes for BayAreaistas... email me if you want a 2-for-1 pass or a free pass, along with directions and a map of the Faire site with a schedule of all the shows and performers and leather corset booths that might be of interest to Buffistas. You can find me at the front gate as a horribly sincere Puritan, explaining earnestly to everyone why they should turn around and go home before they find themselves frying like a goose on the eternal fiery spits of Hell.

I was packing stuff for my move, and I found that I have an extra copy of Fray #2.
The first person to contact me at my profile address who wants it gets it.
...And the comic is taken.
Tonight is likely the last Buffy on UPN in the United States.
Chosen will be shown.
Next week UPN will be showing "UPN's Funky Flubs" in the timeslot.
Be very afraid.
That's it, all four contigious US time zones have shown the final finale.
Goodbye BtVS.
Damn allergies.
