Lisa, is there any way of finding out how many have requested to speak? I hope there are way too many!
Here are my plans. If you would like to coordinate with me so that we get together and some expenses are shared, I would like that a lot. I look forward to meeting any of you who are able to go!
I’ll be flying from Denver to DC (flying into Reagan or whatever they call it) on November 4th. I’ll take the subway from the airport to my cousin’s home in Navy Yard in DC. Navy Yard is only about a mile from the capital and it’s a great location for site-seeing in DC, but it’s not particularly close to the FDA meeting in Silver Spring. If you want to stay in Navy Yard with me, there is a Marriott that is right next to my cousin’s building. You can find information about it and reserve a room at http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/wasny-courtyard-washington-capitol-hill-navy-yard/. If you stay there, we can share cabs to and from the meeting in Silver Spring. I plan to attend the entire meeting, as I think it’s really important. If you stay in DC we can also get together for dinner and get to know each other, which I would certainly love to do. 🙂 (But if you want to stay closer to the FDA meeting, that’s totally understandable.) I’ll probably stay in DC for a few days to visit with my cousin and see sites, then I’ll fly back to Denver.
I’m not going to make any of these plans solid until I get confirmation from Jennifer/the FDA that I am scheduled to speak at the meeting. If I can’t speak, I don’t think I’ll go.
If you want to coordinate traveling and getting together with me, please let me know.
Regards,
Lisa
