Thanks for the notice!

The main Marriot reservation number given on the convention webpage still
didn't have any rooms available, but they finally suggested calling the
hotel itself (703-920-3230), and they were able to book the Thursday night
rooms.

Thanks so much for your help!  I look forward to meeting you at the
convention.

Rick Dotson is on the phone with them NOW. If I were you, I would jump on this because we're getting 10 more rooms for Thursday nite and then that's it. There is another Marriott nearby that runs a shuttle service that is willing to honor the convention room rates, however.
