  I know my way around Union Station very well.  There is a good bar just off
  the Great Hall with fairly reasonable prices.  Also there is another great
  bar on the second floor called The Snuggery.  I think it is not to far from
  McMurder.
  I will be doing my show on WZRD that day so I will think about you all.
