Hi Jeff,

I know Ben! Say hi for me.

We had our first Yuri's Night at the Space Needle in 2004. But it
costs a fortune to rent the place. Last years was at the EMP's Liquid
Lounge.

I hope the MOF does well with this year's party. Unfortunately at $25
a pop it might be hard to sell tickets, but it is worth the cost I
think. Brownlee is a pretty cool speaker and he will be seating at a
table to chat with folks hopefully after the finish the panel talks.

Anyway I will buy a some tickets even though we will be manning a
couple of tables (NSS Seattle and Mars Society Puget Sound).

Good luck and ad Astra,
--Chris Vancil
