Thanks but there is just no way for me to even consider it. I couldn’t even afford a snack box on the plane let alone the airfare. Luckily I’ll get through this and all will be well. The upside is I get 2 different kinds of Morphine pills to take and my friends suddenly hang around me more :-)

[Jim Robinson]

Great!! See you there!!

[Jim Robinson]

Sorry you can’t come to DC with us. Hope you get better soon.

[NJ_Tom]

I will be attending, together with my wife.

Just wanted to add, I have bought my tickets and gotten my room at the Sheraton. Where do I find the latest program of events?

[Allegra]

I’d love to see a million people there!

So would I! I will be there in spirit and will be pulling for a HUGE turnout.

Thanks Jim. After as long as I have been here I had hoped to make it. I have never been to DC before either so I thought it would be a great trip.
Oh well, I make it next year when we have it in San Diego

See you in DC!:)

I am coming fom Connecticut for the march, does anyone have any info on parking.

[Jim Robinson]

Sorry, I don’t know about parking in DC. Kind of curious myself as to where we can park within wheelchair range of the Capitol Building. Maybe a DC Freeper can fill us in.

See you in DC!

[ballplayer]

Thanks ,see you there!

[trooprally]

Jim - as you know from the Porkulus Bill we protested earlier this year, there is really no parking for blocks around the Capitol itself. You’ll have to be dropped off.

Ballplayer - are you staying at a hotel in the area. It might be better to take Metro into DC. FReep Mail me.

Has there been any discussion of the dress code - official or unofficial - for the banquet?

Do I need to bring a tux, or will my best dress overalls be appropriate?

[WayneM]

Actually - my spouse is the one asking about the appropriate dress for the banquet.

I tend to be pretty unconcerned about such things (I leave the worrying to her).
