Dudebro Convention 2011

[Greg Mercer]

Thanks for posting all of this, Pete. I never did actually "re-confirm" anything, but it's fine that we went ahead with the plan because that way it's set. Those days seem totally fine to me and should be OK for anyone that wants to come. Hopefully I can be the first to put those days in for the lab vacation schedule once we get to January. I would suggest everyone else do the same.

I'm sure we can find something to do Thursday...maybe dinner somewhere with everyone would work. Friday "drink-fest" would probably be good as well. I definitely want to do the Mets game that Wednesday since they're playing the Pirates, haha.

I would suggest staying in New Jersey if you want to stay at a nice hotel and save money. I have stayed at the Hyatt and Westin in the Hoboken area, and they are very nice. The view of Manhattan from the Hyatt easily rivals Dicky Doo's dope view. I paid about $125-$150 with taxes for both. You can take the PATH subway into Manhattan. It's really easy.
