Thanks for the reminder Betty! Comcast is hosting a social on Sunday night, October 9th, from 6:30-9:30pm on the 43rd floor at Comcast Center. NANOG and ARIN participants, registered by Wednesday the 5th of October, will be on the guest list with security in the lobby.  Late registrants will need to work with security onsite so please register early instead.  Photo ID will be required for all participants to proceed from the lobby to the 43rd floor. A pair of trolley cars will make an optional continuous loop between the Loews Hotel and Comcast Center.  The stroll is about a half a mile / 15 minutes with Philadelphia City Hall at the mid-spot. https://www.arin.net/participate/meetings/ARIN-XXVIII/social.html has details as well. We look forward to a great night in Philly to kick-off the week. Cheers, -ren On Wed, Sep 21, 2011 at 11:59 AM, Betty Burke <betty@newnog.org> wrote:
