Could anyone (who can stay longer than Eric K) take me? I'd (...) (24 years ago, 14-Apr-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Hello Everyone, I'm gonna try to make it out on saturday too since I have not met any of you yet. I've been in boston for 8 months now and still haven't managed to make it to any lego-related event. Anyways, is everyone still meeting at the (...) (24 years ago, 14-Apr-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) I don't know where we're going to 'spill over' to... my house (1) is definitely too small to host people, not to mention my sis is visiting from Israel so it's even more crowded.

I agree about the money - it's no problem to me, I'm more than willing to pay to see all your troops grovel for mercy. $75 for a full day seems fine. How big is this table, by the way?

OK, I just got off the phone with the Event Management folk at Brandeis, and we can, indeed, get a room for Saturday the 29th. Problem: As soon as I mentioned the need for a table, the price of the room took a little hike: $75. Now, in my mind, this (...) (24 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
