    Hi,

    You, talking, with your chief competitor for people's attention being the Super Bowl. I might just show up so at least there is an audience. :)

    Regards,

    C2, consider it pre-game chatter.

    I think you should get seven shirtless guys to stand in the back together, each with a letter of your last name painted on his chest. Instead of helmets, colanders.

    It's an image that will haunt me, I'll give it that.

    David: How long will the talk last? I plan on attending as well as a few friends. Afterwards, we hope to catch a meal at Katy's Dumpling House. Would you be interested in joining us?

    buttercream, the talk is scheduled to go an hour.

    Katy's afterwards sounds just fine (with caveat that I'm flying in that morning from a week in Kentucky researching bourbon -- but I like the idea and will probably be up for it; thanks for the thought).

    David- great!

    If anybody else is coming to the talk and wants to join us at Katy's, please feel free to come along.

    I am planning to attend the talk, as well (and depending on the petty cash situation, might tag along to the Katy's lunch, too). Looking forward to it!

    Mamagotcha: sounds great. Assuming the talk isn't cancelled due to the snow coming in this weekend, I'll see you there. I'll be the short Korean girl (as if i'm the only one out there).

    If I find out that the flight is cancelled (and I may not know that until the day of the event) I will do my best to post it here so that no one makes the trip for naught.

    C2, can you pm/email me your cell number? If I'm stuck in Louisville airport, I will call you (and then maybe you can post -- I may not have Internet access in airport). Thx

    All good, indeed! A great lecture and a terrific meal with a fascinating group of people (nice to meet you, buttercream!). Thank you, David, for making this happen!

    David's lecture was wonderful, as was our lunch at Katy's afterwards. The Dan Dan noodles were super, as were the dumplings. It was great getting to know mamgotcha, Cathy2, and David.

    I sincerely appreciate the turn-out, and it was excellent to have a snack at Katy's with new and old friends.
