Take the Metro: Encouragement

Anecdote about Winter '87 Usenix:

It was my first *and* my first trip to D.C.  I wanted to get around and
see things so I rented a car.  I paid extortionary rates *and* $7/day
at the hotel to park it and there it sat ... the whole time ... under a
foot and a half of snow.  In contrast, the Metro got me everywhere I
wanted to go efficiently and pleasantly.

Get reservations into National and forgo the rental/parking
foolishness.  You'll be glad you did.

Aside:

Anybody bringing "The President's Analyst" for a re-screening?  It was
the highpoint of the last meeting in D.C. (that and Dennis' Dialectic
:-/).
