Greetings colleagues,
Just called San Antonio to confirm my room reservation, and was informed
that I did not have a double as I had requested from the chain's 800 number.
Not only did I not have a double waiting for me, but since what the 800
folks said they gave me did not jive with what the San Antonio hotel
actually had available, I had NO reservation. Well, at least I now have a
single... Guess I can eat refried beans and peanut butter sandwiches all
week. I may offer a cash bar of fine California wines to help defray expenses.
I encourage those of you who made reservations to confirm them. If you have
not made a reservation...
Does my memory fail me (it often does), or do we seem to go through this
shortage every year? And if so, WHY?
[And if anyone needs a roomie, I will be at conference Thurs. evening until
Wed. afternoon. Sex, sexual preference, smokers, bald people, bad dressers,
etc., doesn't matter to me. Contact me off list.]
Regards,
Peter
