Well, it's your party, I guess. Pick an address and a time. I'm bringing my wife. (safer than explaining that I'm going to meet a bunch of women at a hotel in NY)
Meeting in the lobby, I presume?
Note: I have a pretty bad case of GERD, so vindaloo is out.

Lobby sounds good. I think there's just the one lobby, accessible from both sides of the building? If not, I say go with the second, as that's the site I booked through.

And does that mean all Indian food is out? Or do Indian places usually have stuff you can have, Glenn?

It was more of a heads up. Indian food is usually pretty spicy, and I'm not familiar enough with it to say whether it's reasonable to go into an indian restaurant and expect to find something I can eat. But I've had vindaloo, and it's out of the question.
If you guys have your heart set on indian I'll make do, but gefilte fish would be easier on the tum.
Actually, this may sound weird, but I find that the easiest place to find food I can eat is in mexican restaurants.

Chinese is fine. Especially in NYC. (Don't know why, but most ethnic food tastes better in NYC)

I thought I would be able to make it with my father, but things got really hectic at his job and he has to work all weekend. Maybe next time.

Well, guys, I know you are all waiting, breathlessly, eagerly, impatiently, for the report of how KosherCon2006 went, and if Glenn ever got to figure out this joke:
Well, poor rivka, all tuckered out from her transcontinental flight, and unacclimated to the brisk New York climate, was a real trouper, trouping around the city streets towards the beacon guiding us all -- Kosher Chinese food. Adam, Glenn, the charming Mrs. Arnold, rivka and I all ate tasty soup and crunchy noodles and sipped tea out of tiny cups without handles. Photos were taken, including one of ME kneeling on Theodore Dreiser on the NYC sidewalk, while tall Glenn stood over me and took my picture. This was in a bold effort to make me look more photogenic. When the pictures get posted (and, hey! when are the pictures going to get posted?) you can judge for yourself to see if the effort bore fruit.
And yeah, Glenn got the joke. The brilliance of Adam's joke is that he condensed 20 minutes of explanation, exposition, and retelling into the poetically succinct
Thanks to all for getting together. I had a lovely time in your company.

"and, hey! when are the pictures going to get posted?"
I'm working on it. The camera saves the files at 8MB, so I'm photoshopping them down to a reasonable size for screen display. Then I'll pick the best ones and send them to Adam so he can post them.
It's report card time, so I've been kinda busy.

I made a photoshop action to resize photos and save them as jpeg at one point, but I'm not sure where it went.

Narrativium: I should figure out a quicker way to do that. If you can remember, let me know ('course I'm using photoshop 4.01, it might not have the capability.
