[08:55] morning! [09:00] morning JonathanD [09:01] Howdy rmg51 [09:02] o/ [10:29] JonathanD: what time are you getting to BK tomorrow? [10:29] round 8 [10:29] oh, tomrrow [10:29] not around 8 [10:29] we have to pick up stuff in the suburbs all morning :P [10:30] so maybe 2 or 3. I hope [11:54] BK.... my mind keeps saying "Burker King" [11:55] Burger king burger king... [12:07] mine too bk - and specificallt the one right aroind the corner from BK [12:08] theres a bk near bk? === paulproteus_ is now known as paulproteus [12:43] JonathanD: It's like starbucks, right across the street from each other [13:39] rmg51: do you recall how many smaller classrooms there are at giant? [13:39] 3 [13:40] they're like 40ish people, right? [13:40] 28 [13:40] oh, fairly small... [13:40] yep [13:40] 204 total then. [13:40] prolly to small for your needs [13:40] if we setup video feeds to the smaller rooms, it might work. [13:40] But you'd still only get 28 to a track. [13:41] rmg51: yeah, I think it's too small. [13:42] as you said, they probably can't flex much on it, either... I assume fire code and such. [13:42] wasn't set up form groups like yours [13:42] yep [13:42] Could work if we did 2 days. [13:43] and ran talks twice. [13:43] maybe, anyway. [13:43] price would be right [13:43] I'll think on it. [13:43] We'd have to get (most) speakers to commit twice. [13:44] But lots of small talks wouldn't be all bad, I'd think. [13:44] I'd love to find a floorplan. [13:44] Penn might be an option, too. Or Temple. [13:44] which might not be easy [13:44] the floorplan? [13:45] http://pacsnet.org/meetingrooms.php [13:45] Title: PACS - Meeting Room Layout (at pacsnet.org) [13:46] JonathanD: speskers [13:46] oh, right. [13:46] we could require reservations for space at a talk. [13:46] it might be easier just to get one of the schools, though. [13:47] They should have space for this sort of thing. [13:47] have to find a better place for this laptop [13:47] not even saturday yet and trying to find a next year venue. Win? [13:47] I can't see the keys [13:48] never to early to think about next year [14:00] JonathanD: something to think about [14:00] you may need to book a year in advance to get the whole floor [14:07] true enough. [18:05] someone go get me these: http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/zip/2505863507.html [18:06] Title: Podiums (at philadelphia.craigslist.org) [18:06] For saturday. [18:06] kthx. [18:07] that's a lectern, not a podium :) [18:07] people are so confused [18:07] podium is the thing you stand on! [18:08] No, thats a soap box. [18:17] fight? [19:03] @fight pleia2 JonathanD [19:03] Dunno. [19:03] PennBot: is broken [19:03] Bugger all, I dunno! [19:20] 4 seats to go. [19:20] we're actually past our orig limit, so I think pleia2 can reasonably claim she keynoted for a sold out event. [22:26] hello [22:34] o/ [23:14] can you turn the temperature down before I come in tomorrow? [23:14] thanks. [23:16] yes. [23:18] can we just turn the air conditioner up? [23:19] SATURDAY [23:19] MOSTLY SUNNY. HOT. HUMID WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 90S. [23:19] ^ one of the reasons I moved to san francisco :) [23:20] HEAT INDEX VALUES UP TO 110. [23:20] that's just not right [23:21] we just don't have a big bay to help cool things down [23:22] Saturday Mostly cloudy in the morning then becoming sunny. Patchy fog in the morning. Highs in the lower 60s to mid 70s. Southwest winds 5 to 15 mph. [23:22] ah, nice [23:23] All that nice weather makes you soft. You NEED this trip to the heat and humidity to toughen you up! [23:23] sorry, you don't get to stay home :-/ [23:23] I like being soft! [23:23] :) [23:24] OK, just think how much MORE you'll appreciate SF when you get back! [23:24] yes, clearly my siamese still controls the weather in philly and she did this so I'd come home [23:24] heh
