Dr. Bob, it was that long line and the hectic noise and crowd that scared me off. I was disappointed to not meet other folks and you, but I think downtown Boston was a bit over my head on that day. I wish a quieter place had been available, but I didn't see any. Regardless, it is a great idea. Hope you had a good trip. I could never have imagined so many psychologists and psychiatrists all in one place! Thanks once again for your efforts. By the way, what all was discussed at that conference? Share any of it with us? Thanks. JohnL.

I would have braved the traffic,but as I said above I was sick. I still feel tired and like cement blocks in the head. I work with little ones and it's hard not to get sick every now and then. I'm so sorry it didn't work out! It must have been so disappointing for you. Don't give up on us. Maybe it will work out another time.

Wasn't that something? In retrospect, it wasn't a very good choice for something like this.

I brought my program in case people were interested. There were lots of good programs. It's all in PDF format, but it's all available at:

Dr. Bob,
I know this is a long shot but, if you ever come over to Australia, I would love to meet with you, as would some of my friends. Just to discuss some of the advances made in the U.S , and the differences here in Australia. I find that there just don't seem to be the links over here that you guys all talk about!
It is a very nice country!!!!!
Sincerely, in the hope of this far out idea

I'm really sorry things didn't work out on Sunday. I got the mail too late in the day to come. But I do think it was extraordinarily kind of you to make the offer.>

The "links"?
I've actually been working on a symposium on international perspectives on the use of the Internet in mental health -- or something like that -- for the big psychiatry meeting here in Chicago next May. My idea is to get Peter Yellowlees from Queensland to discuss the Australian scene.
We'll also have a Psycho-Babble get-together someplace quiet. With lots of advance notice. :-)

Cool! I'll help you find a place if you want my help---easy to get to by EL, quiet, cheap, seperate room, etc...... I usually have to play tour guide for new folks and visitors from work.I don't think I'm the only one from the greater Chicago area who found this place.

Great!
Other trips in the works: New York City, maybe October 11 would be the best day; and Phoenix, also next May. :-)

PS: Also, of course, folks are free to get together without me...

Hmm, well, are there any other folks who would be interested in getting together in NYC? I'm going to go to:
Internet Health Day II
http://www.intel.com/intel/e-health/dayII.htmand be on a panel at:
Quality Healthcare Information on the Net 99
http://www.ihc.net/community/conf.htmlThe first is free. Maybe other people would be interested and we could try to meet there somewhere?

Dee, I'm not from New York, but I would love to meet with other Babblers and Dr Bob. If we could arrange something definite, I'd take the train up from Philly. I'm not very familiar with NYC, but I think the location of the coferences is walking distance from Grand Central Station. Maybe there is a coffee shop or restaurant in the Hotel that wouldn't be too crowded? Or another place you're familiar with? I would hate a reenactment of the "line" in Boston! :o)
Dr. Bob, do we need to register to attend any of the Internet Health Day II talks on October 12? The morning speakers sound especially interesting to me.Annie

I agree, let's not have a repeat of Boston!
Would Tuesday be a possibility? I wouldn't think a place in the hotel would be too mobbed. But I don't really know. Would lunch (ie, something during the day) be doable?

Registration is free! Intel has enough money already. :-)

Well, the next big psychology meeting will be there, but not until next August. Do you want to be in charge of finding us a nice place? :-)

Sure, but I'll need a reminder close to the time. If you've read my posts, you know I am not the most organized person.:)

Hey, not a bad idea. Something unique, perhaps designed by some of our posting artists? I'll bet someone could capture the spirit of this great site! I for one would buy one. Dr. Bob can start a new career!!!

I'm not too good with places around Midtown East, put I would think that it is pretty crowded around there most of the time. How about downtown, around Astor place NYU... That would be some 30 blocks from Grand Central.
You know of any places you'd think we would be comfortable in, Anita... Or anyone.
