hi,
Thank you to all who responded to my email. I arrived in Philly pretty late
last night and haven't been able to scout out a unique place to get
together, so...let's meet in the bar of the Downtown Marriott at
5:15-ish. I'm a 6' 2" blond and will have some sort of drink in my hand.
See you there!
