[PRCo] Re: JOHN BROMLEY'S PITTSBURGH SLIDE PRESENTATION

[John F Bromley]

Sorry, Barb.  I made my reservation before I eMailed the notice - if the
place is going to fill up I'll be in the middle at least!  And the hot tub
is a great way to end the day - if you can't be decadent at 62 when will you
be?.

and the date is Saturday June 22, 2002.  Barring any health concerns (and
there are none on my part) there will be no change or cancellation.

Washington-Meadowlands, Exit 8B on I-79.  They've quoted a rate for 2,
king-size, of $75 + 9% tax, $89 if you want a hot tub (ah,  decadence).
