RE: SANS in Boston

[lennons () comcast net]

Randy is right - I never saw the town till after 9:00 or better at 
night.......    The after hours sessions  are as good as the day 
classes.   Travel lite.... The class books and stuff you pick up will 
be heavy....  

Extra battery for the laptop.... (grin).  You will be tired when you 
leave....  

My last one was a 6 day run and I was tired after 6 days of class and 
after hours bof's
