Definitely no Uber: https://www.uber.com/cities/
Uber just did a weird promotion in Utica (two cities east of Rochester) where they delivered ice cream. We were all laughing at what a dumb promotion it was because they are assuming that people have heard of Uber there and want it. But they haven't, and don't. It's a tiny city. All they've done is confuse upstate NYers into thinking that Uber is a food delivery service.... that they can't get anyway. How dumb is that.
No NY cities have Uber if you look. Not even Buffalo or Syracuse.
Portland ME has uber... that city isn't much bigger then Utica. Just seems odd that they would do a small city in Maine, although it is a commuter city so that may be part of it.
Metro area is nearly double that of Utica, and likely more dense. Utica I can't fathom who would use Uber, you have to have a car to do anything. No one is without out.

Probably kilts too...
Gotta remember mine. Are we specifying a day?

I can't make it or I would probably wear mine everyday.
-
So just to confirm, there basically no dress code, correct?
If so I am just packing tshirts and cargo shorts!
-
I've been assuming it will be just like SpiceWorld, i.e. no dress code. Hell if you're Darren you make up some fancy costume to wear each year
-
No dress code at all. Dress for warmish days (between 75-85) and cooler nights (40-60)

Gotta remember to pack my kilt, even if it's just for Saturday

hmm... is grey going?

One more question.
Not that anyone going to the BBQ lunch will need it, but will there be dinner Wednesday night?
No biggie if not, will just grab something at the airport.
-
Yes there is dinner Wednesday night. 6-8 for dinner and open bar from 6-8 as well.

Not that it matters where, but where?
-
All meals will be in the conference area. Trying to keep as much as possible right in one place.

Except for the lunch on saturday, I assume?
-
Yes the LEtchworth Park tour is well at Letchworth Park.
We actually have to be out of the conference space by 12pm on Friday night. So we will have to fully pack up etc.

I think @Minion-Queen means midnight, not noon @Dashrender. So probably Fri. 8a-10p.
-
Yes that is what I mean
I am not awake yet at all.... Having company does that to a person. -

Oh.. good! I was thinking this was going to be a super short short event.
That whole does 12:00:00 belong to the time before or the time coming up...
