Jeff is planning to do 25's and Doug usually does 25's if its available.. But Doug is iffy in coming.. Jeff talks to him more than i. By Wednesday i should know more concrete on who, what, and if is going on.
I will call Jeff tomorrow and see whats up. *update* I just shot Jeff an email and told him to hop on here.

I havn't heard from anyone.. So i am making plans to come myself just in case things fall through. Anyone from Chicago can tell me if these areas are ok to get a hotel? I was looking at motel 6..
1450 East Dundee Road... 6 miles away from Lincolnshire.. I can't afford 100 dollars a night to stay there at the marriott.. If Jeff comes it will be cool.. But i like to plan for worse case scenerio.
SR 53 at Dundee Road
Palatine, IL, 60074
1535 Milwaukee Avenue.. 8 miles
I-294 at Willow Road, then south 2 miles
Glenview, IL, 60025
SR 53 at West Euclid Avenue.. 9.2 miles
1800 Winnetka Circle
Rolling Meadows, IL 60008

Any of these locations will be fine. The one in Palatine is not far from my house. Count on a 25 minute drive. I'm trying to think of where the one is in Rolling Meadows and can't. You might skip it. Given that the convention site is on Milwaukee avenue, the one on that road might be the easiest in terms of navigation.

BTW, although the temp here now is 11F, it's supposed to be nice and warm here over the weekend, in the high 30s (that's high 30sF for all you brits keeping a close eye on this).

Both good and bad, then. See you all there.
Anyone else interested in a game Friday evening? Hauber? Hines? Anyone?
