Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Come One! Come All!

I expect every last one of you to be there. Okay, every last one of you in the NYC area. Freebies and good time with techno-Jews and ... it's going to be awesome. I promise. And if any of you *really, really* want to come and don't think you can swing the entrance fee, let me know and we'll work something out. Begin press release!
