[CJAS Otakon] Otakon 2008!

[James Kao]

Hey All! Hope you're having a good year.

Otakon 2008 will be happening from Aug 8-10, and usual, I am
organizing a "CJAS and Friends" hotel room block.

This year, we will be staying at the Sheraton Inner Harbor, which is
the closest hotel to the Baltimore Convention Center, where the con is
held.

If you're interested in going to Otakon and staying with us,
please send me an e-mail. There is no-obligation, so even if you are
still unsure but are considering it, let me know so that I can keep
you in the loop regarding future developments.

If, for some reason, I get so many responses that I don't have enough
space to handle the worst-case scenario, I will send an e-mail out
with more information, but that has never happened in the
past. Historically, I've never had to turn anyone away who asked for
space.

Generally speaking, we go 6 people to a room, with a cost of around
$60-$80 per person for the whole weekend. Thursday nights are
extra. There will be a online web system for picking what room to go
into so that you can decide who your roommates will be. If you're
interested in seeing how things have gone in past years, the mailing
list archives are at: http://www.cjas.org/pipermail/otakon/

This offer is also extended to non-cjas friends you may know. So feel
free to pass this information along. When e-mailing me, please include
your real name if it's not indicated in your e-mail address.

Thanks!
