That's fine, but if we're going to have this as one item to vote on,
and it will most likely come down to a vote, we're going to have to
have very specific information, such as what specific restaurant in
the place. Also what time, and when and where Happy Hour will be.

IMAO, no buffet is worth an hour wait! I'm not really the impatient
type, but my time is more valuable than that.

Thanks. I agree with much of it. Needless to say, I don't think the idea
of an hour plus wait in public for a $28 buffet is what our people would
like. I can see them clearly voting with their feet. This might be good
for a smaller group to do on their own, but not for an "official" (if
there is such a thing) DLV dinner.

I've never eaten at the Rio buffets. There's always talk about them on
the newsfroups. I've stayed away primarily due to the reports that the
lines are murder.

Next door at the Gold Coast, the buffet was made over about a year ago
and I've been very impressed with it since. For an inexpensive buffet
it's quite good. However, although the line is usually tolerable, it's
right out in the open along the west side of the casino. I would not
recommend it for a medium-large DLV group for this reason.

The two buffets where I've taken DLV people, the Sahara and Palace
Station, both have their waiting lines up one floor from the main
casino and attractions areas. Not really secluded, but not in the
main traffic pattern in the casino either. We're having a Sunday
thing following the side trip at Palace Station, so I don't wanna
put this one up for Wednesday. Sahara is the buffet for Tina's
daily brunch, so I don't wanna put this one up either.

Sasha's and Freezone:

Thanks, Leah. I think we can consider parking to be a non-issue should
we do Freezone that evening.

If you can do this it would be great.

I'm taking the liberty of putting an item on our tentative ballot for
next week of "Sasha's as planned, for better or for worse." and if you
get feedback that shows she will be open, I'm sure that option will get
votes.

We do want to move forward and take the vote next Wednesday, so we can
announce the plans to the Teeming Millions in next Sunday's mailing and
let them decide on their activity selections.

Thanks again, Leah. :)

As you may or may not remember, Fall Harvest was cancelled right after
9-11. Pinkfest actually came about due to this cancellation.

Right after 9-11, our queries and mailing list requests stopped and did
not return to normal for a few weeks.

Very good question. I don't remember parking being a problem on Friday.
I also don't remember any complaints, loud ones, anyway, about parking
there on Friday. I do remember complaints about it Saturday.

IIRC I just drove up to one of several empty spaces in the front lot. I
do remember parking several blocks away after the show on Saturday, and
I remember the next Friday after the Pride Parade I had to park in the
lot to the east of the Double Down. I remember asking the doorman at
Sasha's if that was ok and he said it was.

>I like your statical analysis :) My guess is anywhere from 50-70. I

I think our numbers will be highly dependent on what we decide on this,
and will be related to the perceived nonthreatening atmosphere. I can
see us getting 70 for Sasha's (if it should be the choice and should
survive), around 50 for Hard Rock or Freezone, maybe 40 for Nick's,
and far less for a buffet.

I think Hard Rock could definitely handle the crowd with advance
planning, and in a worst case not everybody could be seated all at
once, which is not TEOTW, IMAO.

Freezone probably could not handle 50 at once, if I remember the
dining area there.

I don't know about Nick's. Cat?

Hmmmm ... {wheels turning} Ladies, whadaya think of something like this:
Meet at Freezone for Happy Hour, then adjourn to either Sasha's, Milano's,
or Freezone for dinner. Comments?
. . . . .

Yes, that can be an option. Those who wanna stay there can stay, those
who wanna do Karaoke at Goodtimes can wander down there at the
appropriate time.
. . . . .

While I admit that I've always pushed back against suggestions of safe
meeting rooms and catered meals in hotel ballrooms, I do agree that we
need to be realistic. We cannot expect a good turnout at a place in
which people will not be comfortable.

I think the Sahara buffet was a good choice for the 1998 and 1999
crowds, but our attendees shifted such that by 2001 it did not work as
well. I wonder if some of the complaints about the food were actually
driven by a lack of comfort and a lack of general enjoyment.

Thanks, Monique. Lots of good thoughts here. :)

Sounds like the idea I had above. And I *swear* I wrote that before
your note came in, really ... I swear ... :)

>We don't have a show to go to, so we're not on a strict deadline.

Very good point. An activity where it's cool to be fashionably late.

One thing I like about your proposal is that it does not take anything
other than trivial coordination, no formal headcount, and we just scrap
the Sasha's count and don't need to ask people to go back and update
their responses.

That was 2000. I remember it was the year I could not drink.

And yes, I do have fond memories of the place in 1999.

Although I'll most likely go with the flow and end up wherever (some
of) the group does, I don't want to commit, since it will be my last
unstructured evening for about a week.

It's very possible that some ad-hoc plans for the evening will be made
by the gang on the way to or from Area 51.

I'm also planning to ship a lot of my stuff to one of the shops, so one
job for Monday after we get back from Area 51 will be retrieving it and
unpacking and such.

I might be game for this. Remember, though, sports bars are often times
haunted by jockish types. There's one in Omaha, however (Arena, nee Rio)
where RCGA people are occasionally sighted without incident. :)

> - go to the movies (normal movies, not RHPS)

Uh, not to poo-poo this, but I think of this as something you do in
your home town and not in LV.

On my personal "do it list" for this trip is visiting the new Cannery
casino. This is untested water, however, and it's technically part of
North Las Vegas and not that far from the air base.

LOL. I might go for that. (annie, are ya goofin on Elvis {hey baby})

I've been by this place 1000 times, but never been in there. Yes, I
think it might be a good place to meet around the time you say and then
decide on what else to do.

Also a good chance to check it out as a possible venue for future DLV
stuff.

>Let's hear some ideas.

Hey, riding in a DeLorean is more fun than cranking code, right? :)

Dr. Brown reports that there will potentially be 39 of our people in
Las Vegas on Monday, including locals.

My suggestion is to not plan anything very specific, but to announce
that those who are there can meet somewhere (like Spotlight) at a
certain time and then possibly go elsewhere or do something.
. . . . .

Another item, Sunday evening. If you remember, we had plans to go to
breakfast with Tiny following the SOM show last year, but Tiny had
some civilian friends come into town and we had to postpone it. Tiny
and I have been tentatively planning to do this for real this time,
right after the curtain call of the late show, which will be about
midnite. All of you, of course, are invited.
