    FYI
    there is a shuttle bus called the Gold Rush that runs every 10 minutes including a stop at the Doubletree to uptown within a block of the bars

    also you have to eat at Merts, real soul food located on College St. near the Arena

    Why do you have to choose dates? Why not just bring your girlfriend/wife or boyfriend/husband?

    HOTEL INFORMATION: Ghost planner says there is a lot of availability as of 2:15 a.m. today.

    When folks call in, ask for the "net-direct rate" aka the expedia.com rate, which is cheaper. Here are the rates I was quoted under the net-direct:
    $89.10+tax for 1 or 2 ppl
    $98.10+tax for 3 ppl
    $107.10+tax for 4 ppl
    ----
    If someone does not use net-direct rate, the bottom rate starts at $99+tax. Smoking and non-smoking rooms are all same rate, and so is 1 king or 2 dbl beds - all same rates.

    Is there a reason for the ghost planners ghostliness? Or is she/he just fucking with us?

    He/She would like to protect their identity to board members not going to the gathering. If you're going, don't worry about it. You'll find out who it is.

    The why interests me more than the who. And now I have that. Thanks.

    It's all about outing - or lack thereof in this case, Clever. As spup has already mentioned. [/Captain Obvious]
