ACTUALLY.. April DID word that wrong. She knows that SOME of her friends were

going, and needed a spare room.. she just doesn't know for sure how many are

going to be in the room. But yes, the room IS accounted for, and it's NOT Just

some " extra " room being booked for " just in case " purposes.. it is being

occupied by myself and a few other friends.

Just thought I would clear that up............

Matt --

Thanks to you, Rob, and others for all the hard work you're doing on

this. I didn't realize so many people were double-booking. That explains

what's going wrong.

Here's the situation we find ourselves in. I'm sure we're no different from

a lot of other people. We had originally talked about all four of us

traveling to SF for the whole week. But we realized we can't afford to do

that.

Now I'm hoping to go - just me and my daughter - for maybe three, possibly

four days so that I can try to sell some books and she can take part in a

few events. But we're still not ready to commit. Meanwhile, here it is only

New Year's Day and the hotel seems to be already booked.

One thing that would help ... since you predict massive cancellations, would

it be possible to talk the hotel into setting up an LPA waiting list?

Thanks,

Dan Kennedy
