    Okay, I have a question about PASS 2015. I can save a lot of money by registering for PASS 2015 now. My question is when do I make my hotel/flight reservations?

    Depends on the hotel you want to stay at. If you're looking to stay at the Sheraton, with all the cool kids (I don't stay there), make your reservation now.

    I think if I suggest the Sheraton again, I'll be told to pay for it myself. Company didn't much appreciate hotel bill > flight costs. 🙁

    With this being my first trip to PASS, I have no idea where to stay.

    I'll see if I can find the place I stayed. The rooms are very nice (I've seen the rooms at the Sheraton and they're just as nice IMHO), the bed was wicked comfortable, and it's just as close (maybe even a little closer to the entrance) as the Sheraton. It's not the "top shelf" lobby like what the Sheraton has but, then again, you don't sleep in the lobby. And the concierge at the place ("John" if IIRC correctly) is an older and very helpful/informative gentleman's gentleman with some pretty good inside tips on the area. I've not been there since 2011 but the prices were a lot better than the Sheraton, as well. Might be because they don't have things like an indoor pool or a weight training room, etc, but it's a nice place to stay. They do have free WIFI, as well.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
