Skeptics VS. Woo at Dragon*Con 2007!

It looks like the fundraiser is going well, so I expect to be there.
I'll be arriving late on 28th, so I'll there on Wednesday.
 
Cool!

We just had our LAST Directors meeting before the con... we have one more though, but that is just 2 days before it to get our room keys and final instructions! :)

Only 46 days until Dragon*Con 2007! :eek:
 
Where out in suburbia do ya live? :)

Lawrenceville - north east of the city.

Which Thursday and Friday do you mean? D*C officially begins on Friday, August 31, but there will be some "unofficial" stuff to do, and hang out for, on the Thurdsay before. The crowd will still be substantial, even if it is just getting started, on Thursday.

I am actually flying in Wednesday, the 29th, because there are a few things I wanted to see in Atlanta before the Con starts.

But, yeah, I still might be able to hang with you folks for some time, on those days, anyway.

(I will NOT be there on the 23rd or 24th, if that is what you meant.)

No, I meant the 30 and 31st. We don't leave for the cruise until Saturday, Sept. 1.

How about Thursday night the 30th? I can do it at my place, or if that is too far, we can organize a good restaurant in midtown somewhere. I guess I should set up a separate thread for that...

Here we go:
