Hi, Here's my take on NOLA. First of all the Convention Center and the Hotel(s) need to be 100% functional, safe an clean. I am not anxious to go there, and get sick or something. (This does not mean that 100% of the Convention Center needs to be this way, but it does mean that our part of the center needs to be this way.) Next, there needs to be an airport. I'm not interested in flying to a second tier airport (to do such means that I would have to change planes), and then driving for a dog's age. This would also imply that I couldn't get out on Thursday night, requiring a loss of another day's productivity and a night's hotel stay. Moreover, if the French Quarter's not back, I'm unsure why I would want to go to that city. In the event that it's not back, the hotel would have to provide much evening dining and entertainment variety, not typical of firms called Hilton. My fear is that the Convention Center will say to COMMON that you have a contract, honor it, and the remainder of the infrastructure will not be there to support us.

You can find the Hilton hotel if you've ever been in NO. There is a VERY narrow strip of land that is not under water. Jackson Square might be dry, but most of the rest of the Quarter is wet. -- Paul Nelson Arbor Solutions, Inc. 708-670-6978 Cell pnelson@xxxxxxxxxx Don <dr2@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx 09/02/2005 07:26 PM Please respond to Midrange Systems Technical Discussion <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx cc Subject NOLA/COMMON S06 It would appear that Jackson square and surrounding areas had very minimal damage, according to video this afternoon. The park on the levy by CDM is green and dry...looks like CDM will be serving coffee and benet's again...
