Curious?

A hands-on type conference/play-date, all in one, in May. I know at least a few other people are coming, but I don't know who, and I think there is still room for more.

It might be useful for them to put the city that the museum is in somewhere on the front page. I had to go to the registration sheet to find out where it was hidden at.

I am going! Looks like a lot of fun, plus I've never been to St Louis. I understand there is a weird guy who lives there, but, hey, where isn't there?

paperskater · 15th March 2012, 05:11 PM

I'm going to bust my butt to try and be there!

Geek Goddess · 1st April 2012, 07:36 AM

Looks like I'm all set. Registered, plane tickets.

paperskater · 8th April 2012, 06:25 PM

Bump!

CriticalThanking · 26th April 2012, 07:25 PM

Yet another egregious bump. We are going to drive and take our time. Time to make hotel reservations. Any recommendations?

Yes, talk to Jeff, apparently he has a block of rooms at some hotel.

hcmom · 1st May 2012, 10:45 AM

This has dropped in price to about the cost of dinner out, for an entire day of entertainment and education and fun.

Plus, some great people are going to be there!

That includes me. Although I am not speaking.

If everyone is nice to me, I'll show you a pub about 5 blocks away that has 57 beers on tap.

Doubt · 1st May 2012, 11:49 AM

I shall be there. But not with bells on. Unless somebody pays me.

Right. Some great people are going to be there, and Scrut is too!

ETA: Sigh... now I feel bad because I'm being snarky about Scrut for absolutely no reason. But I don't want to delete my post, so please, Scrut, could you do something for me to be snarky about?

hcmom · 23rd May 2012, 02:53 PM

Oh man oh man oh man oh man oh man!!!

The Central Scrutinizer · 23rd May 2012, 02:55 PM

I'll be there, even though I'm not the least bit curious about anything.

bke · 25th May 2012, 04:16 AM

Carol and I are Heading out to the airport in a few of hours. Will be there this afternoon.

hcmom · 25th May 2012, 06:25 AM

Dang it, I forgot to post in here while we were on the plane!!

Oh well, El_Spectre, Canadianadan (my son), and I are here now.

paperskater · 25th May 2012, 09:04 PM

hcmom · 2nd June 2012, 07:24 PM
