<VV> 2007 CORSA Convention

[Dave Keillor]

Just for the record, JR never called me a liar -- or implied I was.  He
did question the validity of the information I was given in that his
experience differed from mine.

Note that I'm not talking about the non-refundable deposit -- I knew
about that and it's not uncommon with other car club conventions
(included one in Cedar Rapids, IA).  JR was questioning the requirement
to provide copies of both CC and DL.

Harry J. is on the case.

BTW, the hotel is NOT in Detroit.

All
Unfortunately I won't be at Detroit this year, though I was looking
forward to it.
The Marine Corps League State convention, and a couple of days I need to
spend at Summer Camp with a Scout Unit will eat up my 2nd week of
vacation, 1st week of course will be spent in Buffalo. 

Since I won't be there, let me say---
And so it begins......

Dave calls the reservations manager (or someone who said they were),
gets an explanation, and JR does everything but call him a liar. 

I don't know how that could be, as others over the last few weeks have
called and said that their experience was IDENTICAL to the one Dave
described today. 

I wonder what it would have been like if Iowa had won the bid..... I was
recently told by a director that Detroit was NOT a unanimous vote of
approval by our dedicated BoD.( As an aside, I don't see any of the
current members as the soul sucking wankers that Unca Lonald may feel I
believe them to be.) 

Regardless, don't blame a hotel in Detroit for what they're doing.  If
you thought Buffalo was a ghetto, hang on to thy hat---and your wallet. 

I have a cousin who recently retired as Sr. Regional Planner for LA
County in LA LA land, So Wanda and I are planning to be at the Nats
---NEXT YEAR. No Host hotel problems for me--I'll be in Canoga Park.
Plane fare will probably kill me anyway.
