RE: SANS in Boston

["Jay Woody" <jay_woody () tnb com>]

Thanks everyone that responded on list and off.  I'm actually going up
the weekend before and staying the weekend after, so hopefully I'll get
some play time then.  I'm going to go ahead today and put my account on
hold with the list, so if you guys think of anything else, be sure to
mail me directly.  Sounds like I will see a couple of you at the
conference.  Peace and Good Luck!

Ah. Boston... Some sightseeing tips:
- good food in Chinatown. Check out "Ocean Wealth" and Dim Sum
  at "China Perl" (both across the street from each other. Ask
  a local for direction. Walkable from hotel)

- For touristy stuff: Aquarium and anything along the Freedom 
  trail.

However, as others pointed out, you will have little time for
sightseeing. Classes are pretty much all day and if you booked
the "Track 1 Bootcamp", there will be an evening session 7-9 pm.

The best thing to do in the evening is to hang out with a few
people from the conference and "Talk Shop" or attend a BoF
session (Bird of a Feather. usually free beer is provided).

Aside from learning a lot, one of the great things about a
conference like this is meeting a lot of similar minded folks
and to keep learning after hours.

Hehe... of course: On Wednesday you can attend my talk in the
evening:
