No internet:

Just so you guys know, I may have indifferent/no internet access for the next couple of weeks (I'm hoping someone in the building has wireless I can borrow until AT&T gets set up around Dec 1, but I can't count on that). If you want to get in touch with me, I will still have my Chicago cell phone number.

I'm currently in a Holiday Inn Express in Archdale, NC. Five-ish more hours of driving puts me into DC about 1:30.
