Make sure you get the hotel the fest is AT, because I heard the overflow hotel was really awful. We spoke with a cute older couple while standing in line one evening who said that they were at the overflow hotel, which was in lower Manhattan (in a bad part of town) and that they were afraid to go out after dark, so they had to leave before it got dark and get back to their hotel.

I'm not absolutely sure what the overflow hotel was for this past Fest, but I *thought* I read that it was the Marriott Financial, which is located just a few buildings away from where the WTC was on West Street. If that was where that couple stayed, I'm really surprised to hear that they thought it was awful because I stayed there in 2001 and the room I had was wonderful - much better than the Fest rooms in the Vista Hotel. And the Financial's service was amazing. Though, of course, that was pre-9/11...

I'm not quite sure which hotel they stayed at MB. I would tend to agree that the Marriot Financial SHOULD be nice, but maybe they stayed at yet another hotel, or perhaps that hotel has deteriorated horrendously in the past few years. Though, from the way everything is looking down there now, I would highly doubt that.

ROTFL! I just saw this. Fear not - the little cyber kitty is safe.  He just wants to see Dark Shadows gracing the tube once more. (This is actually an animation I found on a free avatar page but it posted as a still shot).

This system might not allow members to upload certain animated images. But if you'd like to use the animation, we can probably arrange that. Just PM me with the URL for the site/page you found it on.  :)

Jim Pierson told me (and a few others) that he is in the midst of coordinating 2007's DS event and will make an announcement when everything is finalized.

If this has already been posted by someone elsewhere, sorry, didn't see it. ::)

Hello! Happy New Year to all!
I got an email from my friend Renee and she forwarded the response from the fest regarding if and when they would have a 2007. They indicated the plans are not finalized and I see Nancy has posted a similiar response. There is hope!

I had heard about it as well -- nothing finalized yet, but that an announcement would be forthcoming. This is hopeful news, indeed. ;)

Well, I got the word from Jim Pierson himself via e-mail that he hopes to make an announcement soon.  So I guess we have to be patient........
