Good news.  I screwed up the dates and now I'm in!  Looking forward to catching up with everyone and participating in what should be a very interesting discussion.

Terry,
the play on words did not go unnoticed you wordsmith. 


I would be glad to "re-Gale" you all, and thanks for the offer, though I have no intention of getting in the way of Mr. Oliver's plans for the evening.


I might suggest a day at Mt. Prospect in the fall, it is pedestrian friendly, but far from pedestrian.

I've signed up to assist a professor at my school teach a class Tuesday-Thursday afternoons this semester, so I can't now make it on 8/25.


Enjoy the evening!

Another bump. Looking for more attendees to make it worth the effort. Who's game?

To all our Chicago friends, I went to Darius' presentation at Baltimore CC and he was awesome. Open, honest (some times to a fault ;-)), and answered any and all questions. I highly recommend attending if you have the time. Great guy.

PS I was not paid for any above comments either.

Sorry your Honor, but my invitees seem to be engaged in various vacation/family activities. I'm at two (myself and Brian Coffman).

Terry, I will definitely be there.  I'm looking forward to hearing Darius's recap of his two month tour of the U.S. with a particular focus on modern U.S. courses.

We're all confirmed tomorrow.  It looks like we'll have something like 25 in attendance.  I wasn't able to get any local media, so it's a word of mouth event.  We start at 5:30 and will probably only go until 7:30, with drinks and heavy appetizers.  Please bring CASH, $75 for the food and drink and an extra $50 to get both books autographed. 
 
Here are the confirmed attendees:
 
T. Lavin
C. James
J. Way
P. Kupferberg
G. Mostow
P. Birnbaum
G. Ohlendorf
Scott W.
J. McCarthy
S. Solow
M. Smolens
B. Coffman
D. Esler
D. Moore + 1
J. Tigerman
S. Green
P. Carlsen
R. Kelly
A. Schwartz (+2 maybe)
J. O'Callahan (maybe)
P. Thompson (maybe)

And ten minutes later a fist-fight can break out!
