I agree.

$250 USD is quite a lot for a two-day event when you consider that its the
same rate you'ld pay for four nights in a moderately priced hotel.

While I'm sure the event will be quite interesting, personally, I'ld skip it and
go sight seeing just to get the most use out of my money.Edited by: Woodman

I'm supposed to be in Europe until the 5th of Jan anyway. I wonder if I
can miss my flight and go to this and then get them to schedule me a
new one.... Well I would have to scrape the funds for an extra week in
Europe together too, but I can be thrifty..<!--

I'll hesitantly throw in my interest. I still have a few things to get in order before I'll be absolutely sure I'm going.

Anyone going to the symposium? What an amazing line up! Maybe SWIDP could get Hofmann to sign a blotter sheet even though he said he wouldn't.

I will be there. I hope there are enough tickets left so i can get them on location. Do you think so? Perhaps I can't be there for the 3 days but for one day I must be there, i can't get a decision. The Saturday seems very intersting to me because the Shulgins Seminar about Pihkal and Tihkal and Alex Grays Seminar.
