ONE LAST CHANCE TO SAVE THE HOTEL PENNSYLVANIA Yes, this is it. There will be a public hearing next Monday, August 23rd at 9:30 am in New York City at 250 Broadway on the 16th floor. This is a meeting of the Subcommittee on Zoning and Franchise and it's the last one we know of where the issue of Vornado's proposed demolition of the Hotel Pennsylvania will be addressed. (The Hotel Pennsylvania is the home of our biannual HOPE conferences and is host to hundreds of thousands of travelers from around the world each year.)
AUDIO AND VIDEO FROM SELECTED HOPE TALKS NOW AVAILABLE We're pleased to announce that audio & video from certain sessions from The Next HOPE are already being made available. The rest will follow shortly. For now we have four of the most popular talks available online as well as on dvd. The four talks include the Wikileaks keynote as well as the infamous informants panel featuring Adrian Lamo being grilled by members of the hacker community. In the next couple of weeks there will be over 100 hours of content from The Next HOPE posted.
