How safe will be St. Louis to walk that at night?

--- End quote ---

I would seriously checkout that area before walking anywhere around there !

Martin Iturbide:
Gregg, that site is really creepy.

I don't understand if that places are where the sex offenders live or where the crime happened.  Just looking forward of the potential if that site is connected to Google Glass face recognition, you will never get outside to walk :)

Namyn Rednas:
Martin, Neil hasn't responded to either request made earlier.  Given the topic, and what's at stake, it's hard to believe that he would have just walked away from it, but let's not blindly make that assumption.  When you contact him, please ask him if he is following this thread.  He hasn't responded in regards to making contacts with an attendee willing to donate the sharing of their room, or for what amount the Warpstock committee is willing to fund.  We need that information.  Taking the cost of the hotel room out of the equation, and depending on the amount of the Warpstock committee funding will make this much more achievable.  Also, you haven't replied to my questions regarding airfare, or what, if anything, you are able to contribute.  Let's not start filling up this thread with discussions about hotel locations, or the streets of St. Louis at this point.  Focus.

Neil Waldhauer:
I'm following this thread when I do check on OS/2 world, which isn't that often, really.  I hope as many of you as possible also go to Warpstock.

I'm grateful to Martin for his agreement to do a presentation about OS/2 world. As you may have read, Warpstock will be using the funds to fly Lars Erdmann to St. Louis. I hope Martin can crowd-source his travel funds from OS/2 world users. That would be a first in our community.

I'm still open to accepting a volunteer to help us stream the conference.

Martin Iturbide:
Hi

I really want to try to make it to WarpStock. My paypal account is "martin@os2world.com"
My conditions will be that if I don't make the trip I will return the money to the people collaborating.

I still don't know how much of my money I can put to the trip, my idea was to cover my food/movilization expenses that I would have during it. But I will try to do my best here, and I will really like to be there to stream this conferences.

Thanks to everyone for open this possibility. I will be notifyng about the donations to see if I get the goal, I need to reach $1400 aprox (according to my most squeezed Air Ticket and Hotel budget).

Regards
