Confused; is a $500 registration fee required to attend the Rochester appearance? Or can one simply attend your talk for free without registering for the rest of the weekend?

Naturally this will be only a couple of weeks after I leave Western New York again. Be sure to tune in to 89.7 FM (RIT’s radio station) – on Saturdays some dude does a reggae show all day.

Sounds good. But why am I wondering which one of you is going to be the “Dean Moriarty” of this adventure? ^__^

Lexington is a really great town. Unfortunately I moved to the UK, and won’t be back in Kentucky until september 15. What a bummer I will miss you, have always wanted to say hi in person

Brookline is only its own town through some bizarre historical quirk. It is closer to downtown Boston than many parts of Boston are. For example, I leave Boston and travel through Brookline on the T every day to get to work — in Boston.

Anyway, thanks for coming to Brookline. I can’t believe I get to see Doctorow and Stross without making the slightest change to my daily routine.

In my home town, at my favorite bookstore, after sundown on a Friday. I guess two out of three ain’t bad. :-) I’ll have to stop by on Sunday and hope there’s still some signed stock left for sale.

(Incidentally, if you and/or Charles feel like an old-fashioned Shabbat dinner, let me know. We do a good brisket…)
