Scott and ze Doc: How far is Rochester from NYC? I'm asking because I will be in NYC the week before Christmas and if it's not too extensive a trip (I could always rent a car) I might be able to drop by at the HOG and do some shopping.

You mean Rochester is to NYC like Leningrad is to Berlin? This gets interesting.

No problem picking you up from the airport.  Much cheaper to fly then drive!  Besides, wealthy overpaid lawyers from the Fatherland should be able to charter a jet.  You guys don't pay much in taxes over there!   8)

I think it would be feasible to fly from the Republic of Uwe to Rochester direct from some places - Found references to KLM flights from Berlin but not sure where the Dark Lord will be travelling from - then you can escort him out of the area once he has suitably stocked up... ;)

 One of us would be happy to! I would offer a spare room but we don't have one :-[ just my wife's yoga room and a inflatable mattress.

 It's called the Rochester International Airport because once I think a De Havilland Otter got lost and landed there.
