Hi folks,  
There’s only 2 weeks left to register for the Ruby Hoedown, sponsored  
by Engine Y. and Hashrocket. We’ve got talks from Jim W., Joe  
O’Brien, Rein H., Giles B., David Black, Chris W.,  
Rick B., and more! Check out [http://www.rubyhoedown.com/](http://www.rubyhoedown.com/) for  
more information and a regsitration link.

Two things today: discounts and travel.

First, we’ve gotten questions about discount ticket offers. Well, it  
just so happens we offer discounts to students, user groups, and  
companies. If you’re any of those, then drop us an e-mail to  
removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid and we’ll get you setup with a discount  
code.

Second, some people have said that travel to Huntsville has been  
problematic, whether with routes or prices. If you find yourself in  
that situation, the best option is to fly to Nashville or Birmingham  
and drive down (each is only about an hour or so away). This should  
be significantly cheaper than some of the prices I’ve received from a  
few attendees.

Third (oh yeah, I’m adding one to the list!), we’ll be having dinner  
together on Friday provided by an excellent local pasta place. Don’t  
miss it!

Thanks so much! If you have any questions, e-mail me or  
removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid!
