I am not getting many ideas from others, so this is pretty much out of my own head. Please let me know how you would do things differently and we'll see. Nothing is cast in concrete yet, although I have put a some deposits (mostly refundable) on my credit card. I really need help making more contacts, particularly with the old timers. I've even lost a couple. Andy Tait's msg bounced when I sent the last one, for example. The dinners would be a little more than you might expect. NV has 7.25% food tax and they and in 20% gratuity. M&S will run about $50+ and GB maybe even a little more. So if you only would do one of the two, let me know and which you would prefer. If we don't get enough takers, we'll just go to dinner individually. I will be asking for money right after the first of the year (good timing, eh?), so think about what you will want to sign up for amongst the two dinners and the cruise (the cruise is <$20, so should be no problem). Mallory has volunteered to accept checks and I will try to set up the Fortran store so you can "purchase" your events on line. That will be particularly good for us if you don't have a US bank account. The following is the agenda presented at http://www.fortran.com/reunion/agenda.html Friday 1800: FIDS and dinner at Gordon Biersch (restaurant and microbrewery across the parking lot from the hotel; no-host drinks and sit-down dinner). http://www.gordonbiersch.com/restaurants/ Saturday 0900: What's in F2K, John Reid and his troop of merry players from the UK Saturday 1100: Guess the Geezer, Jerry Wagener and his deck of dusty photos Saturday 1300: Depart for Lake Mead Saturday 1400: Two-hour cruise on the lake. Miles Ellis will go around collecting proposals to "finally make Fortran right". http://www.lakemeadcruises.com/ Saturday 1800: No-host drinks and sit-down dinner at McCormick & Schmick's http://www.mccormickandschmick.com/ -- Walt Brainerd +1-877-355-6640 (voice & fax) The Fortran Company +1-520-760-1397 (outside USA) 6025 N.
