Re: [AGA-mcm] convention '10 etc



Very good points Ben. The last two are fairly difficult these days, though maybe the economy has changed that. It all becomes a balance. We had 2 & 3 covered in Atlanta, but this was mutually exclusive of #1. Ah well.

Since it came up, I'd like to put in my $0.02 about the hotel.  I don't know 
whats on the
suggestions page.

1.  Getting from airport to hotel and back should be easy, cheap, and 
convenient.  Not a $50
taxi, figuring out a bus schedule, or hoping people in the area can provide some 
help.  Hotel
shuttle or subway would be optimal.

2.  Somewhere to eat within walking distance other than the hotel re$taurant.  
(unlike Dallas or
SF)  In SF the restaurant was over priced, not good, limited menu, and filled 
up and slow when
everyone went there to eat between meetings.  There was no where else to walk 
to for miles.

3.  In a part of town that does not require a 9mm or Ninja Cheryl to go outside.

4.  < $100 a night

5.  A hotel that does not charge you $6 for the bottle of water in your room, 
$12 a day for
Internet, $1 for local calls, $5/day to breath their air.  I know finding this 
in a convention
hotel might be a tall order, but this is just a wish list.
