Ok, it is official.
Neuros is having a party at the office. Saturday July 24, roughly from 6-9 PM. Very very casual and simple. Some beer, soda, Vodka, maybe some chips.
Your Neuros will serve as your invite and feel free to bring a friend. Should be very fun. If you have modified your Neuros in any way, you should definately come, as we'd love to see the types of things people are doing.
We are located right in the heart in downtown Chicago. The physical address is 2 N. Riverside Plaza. Any train (Metra or the el) or bus will get you here. There's some parking around the area too.
Write to me if you need more info.
But really, you should all come. Make a trip out of it, Chicago in the summer is a great time.

Awesome, I just wish I was able to make it. Chicago is a nice town to visit, but it's just too time consuming/costly to get over there from Minneapolis for a party. Otherwise I would love to meet the DI crew in person and see what kind of geeks other Neuros owners are.
Please either set up a webcam or post some pictures after the event.

Oh Pshaw,
It's a one-hour, $200 round trip flight from Minneapolis to Chicago.

Unfortunately agreed. So why don't we start a party here in Minneapolis? I'll bring alcohol and geeks.  |

We could web cam your Minnesota satellite party.
Seriously, I accept no lies or excuses for not coming to our party...

I'm speaking on "Making Your Presentations Zing!" at the Answers in Genesis Creation College that weekend and I'll probably have more fun.

My interpretation:
Alcohol? Definitely. Food? Eh, maybe if we get around to it. Gotta love a company with its priorities in order

I cannot believe I am considering flying to Chicago for one evening's gathering... but the urge to put some faces with names is very strong.
What's the closest airport? O'Hare? How far from you guys is that?

I'm not an official source on this, but my father has done a lot of traveling in his work, and seems to think that O'Hare is on the "El" line (a monorail type transportation system) |

I sent this to Lou, maybe others would find it helpful re Chicago, our location and transportation:
People fly into O'hare, which is one of the largest airports in the world.
In terms of transportation, "all roads lead to Rome", meaning all public transportation takes you to downtown, so the "Blue Line El" would go right from O'hare to downtown, just 5 blocks away. But there is also the cab option, which would probably be about $30?
----
The other airport is Midway, which is a little farther, but again, all roads lead to Rome and the orange line comes to downtown also.
Now for those of us who are local, we take the Metra, the actual Choo choo train, and that can zip you in from any suburb ever, and bring you in right across the street from the office.

From Mapquest it looks like the offices are just 2 blocks north of Chicago Union station.
http://tinyurl.com/5x9d5
The Station is between Adams and Jackson, from Clinton to the river. Nice easy walk. Anyone care to arrange an after-party party? My last train is 12:40am sunday morning hehe :)
Thx webkid... silly forums :) |
