Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Our wings are not tired.

FWIW, the Best Western is pretty poorly reviewed on Google Maps, and the Crowne Plaza is nowhere near public transportation. A lot of east coasters (like me) will be coming in on train, rather than driving.

I don't recall how we choose the hotel when the time comes, but I am sure people can Google each place and find out if the costs/locations/perks etc all add up. I want to respect the various budgets of the Buffistas, so I am posting a variety of options.

And with that, I am heading out to SoHo. Hope the info on hotels and sights has helped.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Does anyone have easy access to the number of rooms we booked per night last year?

The status is NOT quo.

So here's my thinking for the next vote, if it sounds okay for everyone. It sounds like July 10-11 is the better option overall, but I feel weird eliminating June 26-27 since it technically won the last vote. Would this work?

Choice between:

June 26-27 (Providence or Philly; NYC not available)

July 10-11 (NYC, Providence, or Philly)

And then we can have a run off vote between the cities in question?

Alternatively, we can just do a bullshit consensus to go with July 10-11 and then vote for one of the cities from there.

Yes, no, maybe? Preferences?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Pix, maybe you can do a 2 question poll. The first question being when to have it if it is in Philly or Providence with the top two choices being the option and a second question for if it is in NY with the two most popular dates that are available for there being the options?

sj, that's a good idea, but I only have data on overall date preference, not for individual cities. I would have to do another poll just for NYC before I could do that.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It's a slow day at work so I'm transferring old VHS tapes onto DVD. Currently in the recorder? F2F 2003!

Once the DVD is burned I run off extra copies or post the whole thing online for people to download. Whee!

That was LA, right?

Yep. I have no memory of who recorded this or how I wound up with a copy.

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

It's probably DX. Do you see him in any of the scenes?

Pix, I meant you could use choices 2 and 3 from the previous poll instead of 1 and 2 for NY.
