The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Me and a friend are going to be taking the train to PAX from Chicago (always wanted to go on a cross-country train ride, and I happen to be self-employed at the time, so it's a perfect opportunity). We're booked on the 7 Empire Builder line (Amtrak, that is). Just wondering if anyone else will be on the train, as it doesn't seem UTTERLY impossible.
The train is cool, its getting a lot more attention in this area right now with the new Sounder line and the new Everett station and so on. I really want to ride one of the new Sounder trains to Seattle one of these days. They are supposedly double-deck and have places to set up your laptops and stuff.
At the current rate it looks like me and a friend are taking the train from southern california, but we havnt purchased tickets for one yet since were still not sure what all is going down. All I know is, I have a room booked for PAX and preregistered, so, Im getting there one way or another.
Yeah, I'm rather looking forward to it. We even went so far as to book a sleeping compartment. I especially enjoy the fact that you can bring your own booze. Gonna be a good couple days, heh.
you might want to change the title of your tread so as not to attract attention from federal agents mad because you are flagrant, tap you cell and your phone in the basement.
