Yes, Linda, you will definitely need your bottom half. For all our
sakes, please don't leave it at home.

Well this is interesting. I have been reading these off and on and since
Paul posted, I made it a point to read. Since I don't think women will need
ties, how about our bottom half? I am sure they won't insist on a dress -
even Terry has never seen me in a skirt. But how about jeans? I have one
pair of pants that aren't denim and I am not about to wear them for a solid
week. Did this get addressed in one of the posts I failed to read? Terry
on the other hand wears a pair of Dockers very well and might even be
convinced to bring them as long as he can sneak in a few pairs of shorts and
at least one of his t-shirts. I think he can be talked into leaving his
swimming attire at home.
Maybe Mel and Dave could sneak drinks out to the rest of us.
Has anyone pointed out that only 10% of conference attendees show up in the
clayart room so about 90% would have no reason to bring a tie or even expect
this to be the case? Well, except for those from North Carolina or other
areas of the south who would know this kind of thing.

So does anyone know just what the dress code is exactly in their silly

Ladies--
I suggest we all go to the local thrift store and purchase a cocktail dress
from whatever century, and a pair of long white gloves...which were at the
thrift store in my neighborhood recently. Then we should all put on our
sneakers, and go into the sports bar. I'm sure they couldn't exclude women
in cocktail dresses no matter what they have on their feet. These
accoutrements would only be for a few nights and then we could all chuck
them, or put them in a massive bonfire into which we can put a few pots...
Men--you too can get a jacket from the local thrift store to wear over your
jeans and t-shirts. Ties you can all hang about your neck without knotting
them. I'm sure there are no rules as to whether ties need to be knotted.
I used to organize protests against dress codes in my elementary
school...part of my checkered past!

Why spend more money; let's toga! ;D Sandal are not on the black list. Or
maybe we can all pull out our Halloween dresses and have some fun. Does it
say no French Made suit anywhere? Not that anyone would EVER want to see
me in one of those ROTFL I can do the accent though ;)

Yes, I have learned from my mistakes...
I can reproduce them exactly.

Wouldn't it be much more fun if the men found the evening dresses and the
ladies found the jackets and ties?
I do get the feeling a) that the Adams Mark folks may have bitten off a little more than
they can chew by letting a bunch of clay folks into the place and b) that the folks who
put this conference into an Adams Mark didn't do their homework well. That chain of
hotels has a reputation for racist policies and, now, for being just plain stodgy. I
certainly wouldn't give them business.
