Re: Instructions for booking BWE Hotel - Revised 1-6-10 @9 pm
Given that a few people are expereincing IT-related problems, I would again suggest that people book by emailing or calling Ms. Rasocha. She is very prompt and helpful.

BWE 2010 - Chicago Hotel Info
The Affinia requires us (specifically me, and my credit card) to assure them of at least 12 rooms booked on Friday and Saturday nights. My informal count suggest that this will not be a problem, but before I put my credit card on the line, I need to know who is firmly committed to (i.e. guaranteeing...

Re: The Wine Spectator article on wine counterfeiting
I think what people are gently suggesting (ok, maybe not gently) is that as BD, you might want to stay above the fray (a/k/a on the high road). Turn the other cheek. Judge favorably. And all that.

Re: Ethics and wine critics
I fail to see how discussion of Squire's censorship (which I think got out of hand when Lyle and Alice were banned from eBob) was furthered by taking a cheap pot-shot at Josh on this forum. Even if your post reflects your opinion, it added nothing to the discussion. It was just a mean-spirited gratu...

this pot-shot at Josh was not only unwarranted but beneath you. i thought we prided ourselves on civil discourse here?

I got the vintages right but only the Lalande nailed down as far as the wines. Even the vintage guessing ...

go to priceline, login, choose your dates (I chose 4/2 - 4/5), Washington DC (as your city), select Georetown-Foggy bottom zone ONLY. Select the 4-star hotel option only. BID $120.
I got into the westin for these dates and price a few moments ago.
