Newark Winter 2009

Recall there was a large section of the room that was not used. We are taking advantage of this section with seats. There will be approximately 200 seats. If you brought a lot of friends or company, somebody will have to stand. Think, though. In the Exploratorium, there is approximately enough seats for 50-100 people. Granted, they can walk around and see more stuff at the Exploratorium, but people will have to bear with me on this one. It is very likely that I will pursue a larger venue for the next competition I host.
 
Hey Bob if have me go first in clock I will gladly scramble for everyone the rest of the round in order to move things along. I seriously doubt that anyone there can scramble faster than me, and if we do it this way than its just one less thing for you to worry about.
 
I highly recommend public transportation, especially for you. Take NJ Transit to Newark Penn Station and then follow the directions I put on the website (I think there are some buses and a light rail). It's about a mile, so don't walk unless you are feeling adventurous. Sam did it last year. :P
 
I would encourage everyone (like me) to tell their parents to bring a portable chair, my dad is bringing a folding lounge chair and plans on falling asleep and going on his laptop

Yes there is a parking lot next to the library. Also Bob, in an effort to save myself around ten thousand bucks, I registered again without OH and 4x4(they take the longest). Really, whats up with these super high registration fees?

Well for one, it may have driven some people away from actually going. And as you show very nicely, it prevents people from signing up to every event, taking up valuable time.

Also, if it was free, everyone may have signed up for everything they can solve, no matter how long it takes.
