dchenesSo far I'm in favor of the Megabus, which has wifi, which distracts me from the seats being uncomfortable after four hours. I am not so much in favor of an 18-block walk with suitcase between Penn Station and Times Square at rush hour, but that's my fault for getting driving directions. It might take five minutes in a car in the middle of the night, but it takes about half an hour on foot at 6:00.
I forgot, since I haven't been to this conference in a while, that between the end of breakfast and the start of the first panel is about three hours of dead space. Unless you're a voting member (I'm not), in which case you can spend it voting for next year's officers. I wish there had been somewhere to sit down on one of the four floors of the hotel which the ATA is occupying, but there wasn't, so I merfed around in the exhibitors' hall and sat on the floor reading the program. Everything I want to go to conflicts with something else I want to go to, but it wouldn't be a conference if that didn't happen. I picked the right one for this morning, at least.
Tomorrow afternoon I'm going to sneak off and be a tourist.
