Announcement

Welcome to the HOPE Forums, also known as talk.hope.net. Since 1994 (the year of the first HOPE conference), we've had nine conferences. This is the place to come up with ideas, make suggestions, and welcome new people.

You'll find sections on just about anything of interest to HOPE attendees. If you think something is missing start a thread in the "General Questions" forum and/or ask people about it. Thanks for participating and see you at HOPE!

Well I'm from Texas (pretty much its own country), and I walked around Manhattan pretty much every night of the con, sometimes alone...
(which i admit at times was a little scary--- I did have to give that one guy my decoy wallet containing a fake id, and 30 bucks cash... sad)

But seriuosly I grabbed 3 people I didn't even know, and drug them to little italy, and treated them to the best pizza I'd ever had! I think that is part of the experience, and anything we can do to coerce that experience (i.e. not providing food) is a moral imperative.

Re: All night activities / caffiene / great talks / etc.

Soylent Green is one of my second favorite toppings. Great with pineapple. I think they call it "Hawaiian style." Oh, wait, that's ham I'm thinking of...
