What a treat! Wish I could attend, but a bit out of driving distance, but those who can, should!

[almitysufx]

Anyone who gets to hang out with Art is in for a treat, I got to see him for about 5 minutes a few weeks ago at Mid Ohio con. There was a line at his table all day, unlike most guests. Wish I could make this, but that's too far.
Have a great time!

Man, that sounds like a great time. If only the vacation fairy would come and dump a big sack of money off or perhaps some hotel coupons.

James - you gotta come down south a bit and work at UT.

[Flynne]

I'm on deadline, but being 2 1/2 hours away in Wichita means I might make it if we meet our 11/07 deliverables. Count me in!

[SUP-Ronin]

I thought you meant Art Bell, that oddball from AM talk radio.

[saildog]

I'm on deadline, but being 2 1/2 hours away in Wichita means I might make it if we meet our 11/07 deliverables. Count me in!

That would be awesome if you could make it!

The University where Art is going to speak is only about 2.5 miles West after you exit I-35.

[txteach]

Wish I could make it but I can't miss any more work before Christmas. I'll be coming to visit you guys early in 2010 though.

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

Man I'd love to go.

[Flynne]

I'm on deadline, but being 2 1/2 hours away in Wichita means I might make it if we meet our 11/07 deliverables. Count me in!

Well, we missed our deliverable, but only by 4 days. I should be able to make it down to see all of you on Friday the 13th (cue maniacal laughter!)
