Bob, Andy et al.
Sorry I won't make the Boston GTG after all....When Thai Air changed my flights, I decided to stay in SEA a little longer. (That'll teach 'em!)
Won't be back in the states till October 16.
Look forward to hearing all about it!

Ahem...pandas are Romanian. See Bob's last European trip report for further details, listed under "bear".
LaurieCo, you should be Honorary Guest of Honor for Life because of the anecdote you'd regaled us with last year! And yes, I've never been to Asia, but keep getting invited to the Boston GTG (undoubtedly some clerical error on their part), so I keep attending.
I see Rizzuto's still in fine form!
Barring any unforeseen complications (I will have a set of scans scheduled sometime in the next month) I will see you there. And this year I'm actually bringing my own hair, because it grew in, although I do bear an uncanny resemblance to Harpo Marx now. I'm actually going to be back in Beantown next month for an appointment at Dana-Farber, so flying out again in a few weeks will "ease me" into autumn. (We Midwesterners usually head right from summer to winter, but if you don't blink and can actually experience autumn out here, the colors would rival the Berkshires.)

we are anticipating changing the friday nite dinner to a different location, more in the boston tradition---FISH and SEAFOOD...
