Not trying to gum up the works - but if it is not too late to make a change I would suggest Dick's Last resort over Rock Bottom. Dick's Last Resort (Casual Dining/Sports Bar) 345 Fourth Ave. (619) 231-9100 Dick's has a lot of outdoor seating, but indoor also in case it is too hot (doubt it). They have a great menu, the servers will give you a very hard time in a good-natured sort-of-way, you don't have to worry about disturbing other patrons (nobody expects you to be quiet), it's closer to the Hyatt and the Convention Center, and has much more of a San Diego feel to it than Rock Bottom. I'll check back here before Thursday to see if you're still going to Rock Bottom or if my hard-sell tactics worked at all. The only reason I mention it is that I've been to both places in San Diego during the past year and Dick's was ten times more fun. See ya next week, Barry Hi Will,

Will try my best to get there before the meet-up is over. Incidentally, how far is this location from the Manchaster Grand Hyatt? That will, of course, determine if I can attend.......Jerrie Would love to attend; however, I have a NECC Program Committee meeting from 8:00 until 9:30.
