All,
We're pulling together a post Nordyke oral argument event. Likely details: Thursday 1/15/09 at 6PM or 7PM. In San Francisco - walking distance from Civic Center BART and the Courthouse. We'll open the doors an hour or so after the argument. Dinner (steak or fish) and a cash bar. Replay audio/video of the argument optionally. Special Guests: Don Kilmer, Don Kates, Dave Hardy, and potentially more. $50ish per head - profits to The Calguns Foundation. What I need to know is if you will attend dinner so I can plan for the size of the room.

I'll be there, although $50-ish is a bit hard on my thin wallet. I'll just be frugal for the next couple of weeks.

We're likely to hold this at a hotel in a ballroom so food will be standard hotel fare.

Yes. On this I just didn't want to figure out how to haul 50 Calgunners and 7-10 VIPs to the Peninsula when we could just walk...

I voted yes, and will try to take 2 days off (the day prior so I could sleep that night) because I yawn an awful lot during the day, and I would be frowned by the Judges.
Will there be a non-beef option?Erik. |

I might be able to make it, but if I change employers I am not sure. So please keep me tentative.
