A party sounds nice and I would like to go but looking ahead in time from where I am now (in time) is not feasable. I'm geographically in the Gulf Coast area. It would be nice to have something at a hotel or within easy transportation distance of a relatively inexpensive hotel. I'm speaking as someone who's trying to avoid renting a car and trying to avoid driving in Chicago traffic! I'm not really familiar with the city and the thought of driving is, well, frightening! I think there must be wonderful stuff to see - perhaps a get-together at a hotel and that evening or the next day a visit to some interesting place together like a museum or whatever. Sort've like a mini version of a conference? People could go together by bus or taxi or if they drove into town they could drive to the museum (or whatever) and meet up with the rest of the group at a given time. For that matter, I've never seen the Univ of Chicago - that might be novel too for folks from a distance.
