    Live at ApolyCon 06

    Hey everybody,

    I'm at the Holiday Inn right now waiting for snoopy and DanQ to knock on my door.

    It's been quite a trip and I traveled nearly eighteen hours to get here, but I've settled into my room now. It's quite a nice room although my view is slightly obscured by the chemical storage facility

    Markos should be joining us today as well, so I'm looking forward to meeting him too.

    Keep you posted!

    So, how do you like it here in Baltimore so far? Looks like a nice weekend shaping up.

    Sorry about the chemical storage facility! I'll have to write to the governor about that!

    Snoopy here, posting from a friend's computer Dan and I walked around the Mall today in D.C. ... not sure what to do tomorrow, might wander around Baltimore or some such, or just sleep

    We're all set to have a great con!

    CapTVK just walked (stumbled)* in from the lightrail station. I got off at the 2nd station and took a wrong turn before walking the right way. I'll be freshing up a bit and you can find me at room 325 or otherwise down at the lobby.

    Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

    Baltimore is a very car-oriented city. Washington and NYC are a lot better, although they are rarities in the US.

    I'll be at the hotel in a couple of hours. Apparently wifi is working OK?
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

    Heh, I live here. Any chance you guys would mind me driving up to Baltimore tomorrow and at least saying "hi" at some point?

    ZargonX told me that attendance was likely to be so low that you probably wouldn't mind. I don't want to butt in if you guys have paid money to attend or something, though. Let me know.

    Could someone in contact with Donegeal tell him to check the Fantasy Football thread when he can?

    The real question is, why is neither of you wearing Apolyton shirts for the meeting!
