AAPT Summer meeting 2018

[Dr Transport]

Anyone going?? I recently renewed my membership having let it go for ~20 years and since I live on the edge of the District and work in the District I was thinking of going.

Maybe have a meet and greet among the Forum members??

Meet and greet would have been cool.. but it seems no one else goes.
(Admittedly, it is expensive to go to. I'm thankful that I often have access to funds that help pay for my attendance.)

I've been going regularly and presenting (at least once a year) since 2004
(from this past decade https://www.aapt.org/Conferences/meetings.cfm , I only missed Atlanta (2017), New Orleans (2013), Philadelphia (2012), Omaha (2011)).
But this summer, I thought to give myself a break and work on writing up some papers...

I find AAPT meetings a good place to get "recharged"... by getting ideas and sharing ideas, as well as catching up with some colleagues.
If you can go, you should.
