DS Fest 2003?
« on: August 30, 2002, 04:13:35 AM »
Has there been any word on exactly WHERE the DS Fest in New York is going to be held next year?  

I'm pretty sure I asked this question when the dates for next year were announced: how can they announce the dates if the location hasn't been booked yet....and if it's booked somewhere, why hasn't it been announced?

Anybody in the know?

Abbeymarch and I tend to dither  ?!?  :(  :)  >:(   ?!?     and will require as much time as possible to make up our minds about going!  ::)

It will be announced sometime in the near future. Gotta wait some more. I just hate those dates, Aug. 8 - 10. My daughter's birthday is the 7th. I will have to go to New York the day of the Festival. That won't leave me any time to go to a few places I wanted to go to and look up some info on Craig Slocum.  :'(

Yes, Manhattan. I went to see where he lived last time I was there. I would really like to know where his grave is, so I can visit him at least once.

Just a note for those who stayed at the Marriott WTC in August 2001:  watch your mail for an unassuming notice of a class-action lawsuit against the Marriott for billing customers a separate energy charge.  (I remember receiving my bill and wondering what the $1.50 per day charge -- I think that was the amount -- was for.  Apparently some Marriott customers were so incensed by this that they decided to sue -- hey, this is America!  :D)

At the bottom of the notice is a coupon -- mine was for $10 -- good for your next stay at a Marriott.  If you accept this settlement offer, you agree not to pursue a higher monetary recovery from Marriott.

P.S.  I just noticed the spell checker at the bottom of the screen -- has that always been there?!  :)

Hi, Vlad!

I received it too, but I remember being told what the energy charge per day would be when I reserved my room and was even asked if I understood what I was being told, which seemed really weird at the time, but I guess they were already getting complaints by then.

Since May. ;)

If you're interested in what MB said about it, the announcement is currently on page 8 of the Testing 1, 2, 3 board.

I also received then notification regarding the energy bill. I really cannot remember if they told me but if it was only $1.50 per day I would rather have the $10 certificate.

In 1980, I saw John Belushi in concert with the Blues Brothers in Hollywood. My little girl's father worked on the movie too. He met him. Hope to see you in New York too Jennifer!  8)

Thanks Vlad...I received the certificate a few days ago.

You could easily throw it in the trash not knowing. It does not appear important at first glance. Perhaps you did receive the letter and it was discarded?
