What you doing May 2002?
Well, as we ALL should remember this is the odd-on month that Episode-II will be released in the US. Us poor Europeans (UBH,Raz Moi) will probably have a 6-8 week wait unless something wonderful happens.
Anyway, I noted that Raz was thinking about going to the US to see the premier. I had also thought about doing this and now I find out that UBH is going to try, work allowing. I also ran this by Dim and she liked the idea.
Soooo, how about it? Meeting up in New York, catch the premier and hang out for a bit. I'm betting some of the longstanding members would also be interested.
I know it's not something everyone can do, school, work and family commitments have to be met and all that, but it could be a blast.

I know it would be a blast but I doubt I could do it.

Well, worst case it's me and you then Dim. I'm sure you could put up with my company for a couple of days at least.

Between £450.00 and £600.00 if you fly Virgin, I expect you can get it cheaper.
Hotels start around £20 per night for a single room, but that is slumming it.
Travel Insurance £20-£40

I'm not sure but I based the hotel prices on some I recently booked up online. A reasonable hotel in southern states is about $60.00. Obviously flights vary from country to country but I estimate a return flight at the higher end of the scale to be around DM1800.00 but I could be WAAAYYYYY off.
It seems that there's a lot of positive interest here. I was going to propose that we open up this to the forum because the likes of queeq, DD, Gundark and a few others may be interested.

I've always wanted to go to New York. Ah, what the hell? I could be done with school by then, I'll see what I can do.

I Guess we'll have to do some investigating into this towards the Fall.

We could always search on ICQ for someone with interests in SW and lives in NYC.

Well, see, here's a thing. Gundy, you're probably our best hope right now for a recon mission. It could be dangerous, but we have faith in your abilities...

Gundie what are your chances of moving into an apartment across the street from a New York Cinema?

Well if Tommy has anything to say about it, about the same chance as the Emporer and Kitster sharing an orange crush in the smuggling compartment on board the Falcon. Hehehe.
