aar in philly

for anyone who reads this... so the aar is in the greatest city in the world this year, and i happen to live there, too. just wanted to see if anyone was coming. are you? need a place to stay??? i'm in west philly, admittedly not close to the convention center... but great digs and we know how to show you a good time. let me know if you need a place to crash. i can't go to the conference, as work beckons for the whole weekend (i'm not kidding when i say the whole weekend, either), but i'd love to see you... and my house is yours. let me know what your respective deals are, and get here while the cheesesteaks are good (so, um, always).
