Sunday evening is out for me. It's the official opening bash, and I look
forward to it--lots of free food, a chance to catch up with people I haven't
seen since the last conference, and a great time to meet lots of new
friends.
Saturday is good, though. I'm flying into Chicago early in the morning so I
can spend a whole day at the zoos.
Chicago *does* still have at least one zoo, right? [pause for web search]
Whew! Both zoos are still alive. Scared myself for a minute there. I
practically lived at Lincoln Park from age 4-7 (had a major crush on Marlin
Perkins) and my kindergarten class was one of the first to go on a field
trip to Brookfield's children's zoo (brand spanking new that year).

Sunday or even Saturday might be good: when I was putting together my
proposal for HR, I found that it's much, MUCH cheaper to fly in on Saturday
than on Sunday (over three times the price on a Sunday!). The price
difference more than makes up for the price of the room for one more night.
If enough people are therefore planning to arrive on the Saturday, perhaps
that might be a good night?
Susan Mason would like to chow down with toute la gang:
Here's a thought...
Monday isn't good for some because they are attending the event at the
Fields Museum. Tuesday isn't good for some due to other scheduling
conflicts. Wednesday is out due to folks flying home....BUT--what about
Sunday night? Maybe a late dinner (7:30-ish) or cocktails. Just a thought
that Barbara Yanez and I were kicking around.
