HEAD COUNT: unofficial ET Commerce reunion

We are wrapping up party plans for August 30 and are looking for a head count. Please let me know.

Food will be provided, but ask that you bring your drink of choice.

Still a small group that have confirmed we will see their presence, but plenty of room for more. In fact (maybe I am setting myself for some high standards here), I would expect to see some of you just show up without letting us know, and that is fine and dandy.

If you're waiting to see who is coming before you decide, you may never see the right name, but we want to see YOU anyway! Full lists are at end of e-mail. Not many have replied with those I have missed.

Looking forward to seeing you all.

You might want to stay south of Hwy 380:
(Best Western McKinney Inn & Suites on White Blvd. on Central Expwy; but there are even less expensive ones between 380/University Blvd and Virginia Pkwy and Central. Party is west of Central)

They may not have high ratings, but some are pretty good price.
