Ok cool, Im assuming its open in the day time, I know they have an biz
office up on the second tier (where i had to go to look for the lost
palm pilot after last years oscon) and the doors were open. I doubt
access is an issue.

There is a parking lot of the old Coffee People across the street from
the main entrances. We can use my van as a power source and base for
external transmission, just as long as there is juice for the kids dvd
player left. I got a couple of FRS radios we can use to coordinate.

The door across from the parking lot is the one that leads to where
the exhibits were last year. I'm supposing he glass of the type that
is wifi unfiendly so we may need a door stop of some inconspicuous
sort.

We got nothing to loose by running a drill and a a bit of something to
gain in the exercise. If we can pull it off such that we have a proof
of concept, so much the better.  lets talk timetables and gear needs.
