Meet me in St. Louis

The 2008 AEA Engineer Regimental Conference is well underway here in St Louis...close to 700 are here today and tomorrow and then many will travel down I-44 to Fort Leonard Wood for a 3-day session there. My only complaint is that it seems to me the more a hotel room costs (even with a special low conference rate) the less things you get for "free". Example: wireless internet. At the motel where I stayed before coming to St. Louis, wireless was free all over. Here, it would have cost me ten bucks a day. So, to publish this blog, I simply decided to use the wireless internet stations set up inside the AEA conference exhibit center, which is, of course FREE. Works for me!
