Depart Monday, Spt 14, 1:59 pm AA Flight 4679at JFK

Staying at:

Hotel 17

Who wants to drink beer Thursday and/or Friday and/or Saturday and/or Sunday night?

I think there is an "official" happy hour Friday night, and I'm sure the crowd will go somewhere Saturday night after the conference, so who wants to drink beer Thursday and/or Sunday night?

The Central Scrutinizer · 7th August 2009, 10:02 PM

The best part: No Rebecca!!!

Wowbagger · 8th August 2009, 08:51 AM

I'll be there!

But, I thought Rebecca was, too. Did she change her mind?
(And, if so, was it because of me?

)

KingMerv00 · 8th August 2009, 03:40 PM

I'll be there.

SkepticScott · 11th August 2009, 10:39 AM

I should be there.

Sc00ter · 12th August 2009, 12:48 PM

I'll be there, staying at Hotel Pennsylvania. Arriving Friday night (hopefully not to late), leaving Sunday whenever.

Wowbagger · 12th August 2009, 05:08 PM

I live about 40-50 minutes away, depending on various things. So, I won't be in a hotel.

Paul C. Anagnostopoulos · 12th August 2009, 05:54 PM

You're all going to the New England Cigar Smoking Society meeting?

I would, if I smoked cigars. But, I don't.

Instead, I am going to this: http://www.necsscon.org/

The Northeast Conference on Science and Skepticism.

ricklesgibson · 16th August 2009, 10:27 AM

I'll be there for sure. & I've been trying to get some skeptics to join me for the craft beer festival that week. I can't post URs due to my n00b forum status but you can see details at nycbeerweek dot com slash events slash cask. What do you all think? I've always loved these events.

ShowerComic · 18th August 2009, 04:03 PM

Currently we're planning on going to this, and the Vintage Computer Fair the following day.
-- Need to work out the plans though.

Wowbagger · 18th August 2009, 09:55 PM

Oooo! That Vintage Computer Fair sounds like good, olde fashioned, geeky fun, too!

HarryKeogh · 26th August 2009, 06:52 AM

Cool, Scrut's in town!

If you want to hang Thursday night I'd be down. Shoot me a PM and we could exchange info.

Don't know if I could make it Friday to Drinking Skeptically but I'll be at the conference, Saturday.

OK, will do! I'll be there Thur, Fri, Sat & Sun, going home Mon, in the afternoon, I think.

ricklesgibson · 31st August 2009, 07:40 PM

OK I'm catching the supercool wifi enabled Megabus down to avoid parking & tolls. Arriving @ 1:15PM @ 7th Ave & 28th St. Who wants to catch a drink that afternoon before Drinking Skeptically & the craft beer fest? & any suggestions on where I should spend the night?

SkepticScott · 2nd September 2009, 12:26 PM

I'm planning to drive from north of Boston, MA, to Greenwich, CT, and taking the 08:12 train in to Grand Central Station. It's less than a mile walk to the conference site. I'll take the 20:40 or 21:40 train back. Is anyone else going that way?

Mattfn · 3rd September 2009, 05:51 PM

We have the hotel arranged finally, and will be driving down Friday for some bumming around the city and Skeptics in the Pub. We're leaving Sunday morning for the next conference, the Vintage Computer Festival at the InfoAge Science Center in Wall, New Jersey.

11 foreign countries, but I've never been to anything besides JFK in NYC. Should be fun!

The Central Scrutinizer · 7th September 2009, 07:46 PM

OK, so what do I do Thursday night? Mets game (Yankees are off)? Broadway? Beer?

KingMerv00 · 11th September 2009, 04:48 AM

Arriving today by train at around 5:30PM. Staying till Sunday night.

ricklesgibson · 11th September 2009, 02:56 PM

Im heading over to Rattle n Hum on 14 E 33rd St (5th & Madison) for a pint or two before Drinking Skeptically. I'm the fat guy with brown hair & yellow tie. See you there or @ Deweys!

grunion · 11th September 2009, 03:30 PM

I'm taking the LIRR arriving at Penn Station around 9:00. I don't have a ticket yet - it's not sold out is it? I'm a cheapskate and don't want to finance Ticketmaster with their Convenience Charges.

Wowbagger · 13th September 2009, 11:00 AM

Well, that was good.

Hubbub · 13th September 2009, 05:10 PM

Wowbagger, were you a volunteer at the event? I remember I saw you in a Mark Roberts youtube video where you played a Twoofer.

HarryKeogh · 13th September 2009, 05:17 PM

Well, bought a ticket and it went to waste as I had to go to work to complete a project.

But at least I got to have dinner with The Central Scrutinizer on Thursday. Aside from being a super-cool guy my wife thought he was quite charming.

Yep, Scrut...charming! Who knew?!

Great to meet you, Scrut. We had a lot of fun hanging with you!

Yes, I was!

And, if you saw me today, at the Jolly 13 Club's brunch, you would recognize me even more, because I happened to wear a "White and Nerdy" T-shirt: a short-sleeved version of the shirt I wore in that video.

Sorry I didn't see you at the conference.

I too had a great time Thursday night! I look forward to getting together before NECSS II (don't know the dates, but they sounded pretty confident that there would be one).

And for the record, Joy is smokin' hot. But I'm sure you hear that a lot.

It seems that there is every intent of there being one, they sold out and had to turn people away after all.

But at least I got to have dinner with The Central Scrutinizer on Thursday. Aside from being a super-cool guy my wife thought he was quite charming. Yep, Scrut...charming! Who knew?! Great to meet you, Scrut. We had a lot of fun hanging with you! Sorry I didn't see you at the conference. I too had a great time Thursday night! I look forward to getting together before NECSS II (don't know the dates, but they sounded pretty confident that there would be one). And for the record, Joy is smokin' hot. But I'm sure you hear that a lot.
