If you get a chance to meet John Paul, be sure to have him introduce his wife Charlie. These two have a cool and interesting relationship.

If you are arriving at Newark Liberty International Airport there is a monorail called the Airtrain that will take you to New Jersey Transit's Northeast Corridor line. Once there you can get a ticket to Metropark station which is very close to the hotel. As mentioned in previous posts the Northeast Corridor line also goes into New York City and puts you in the heart of downtown Manhattan, it's about a 45 minute ride. If anyone like's good BBQ you can get off at Newark Penn Station, also on the N.E. corridor line and hit Dinosaur BBQ which is within walking distance of the train station.
Can't wait for the show, I'm looking forward to meeting some of you who I know through reading this forum.
Hope this helps some, I live 10 minutes from the hotel so feel free to ask any questions about the area.

That's what I get for still owing you a drink I guess. I'd rather owe it to you though than cheat you out of it. :D

I am marking my calendar, although early, looks really good though.

There's nothing else like it Julian. The quality of the fish is incredible and the discus knowledge present is second to none. It's truly something every discus enthusiast should experience.

Ok a little late

Better late than never Wes, a ton of knowledge was shared in that circle.
A few of the speakers have been lined up for the show and I'm REALLY psyched!
