Rough Planet Guide: multimedia special section!!!

We're about to start sending our custom guide to Seattle to guests who have told us they are coming. So if you've told us you're coming, and don't receive this soon, then please RSVP again because it probably means your first reply didn't get through. If you haven't replied yet, please do because knowing exactly how many people will be here will help us finalise arrangements.

The guide contains a lot of www addresses, which obviously are not all that useful on paper, so here they all are as links you can follow to save some typing (we didn't want to put the guide itself online because we prefer not to publish our address together with details of when we'll be out of the country...):
