The DC Transhumanists will be meeting for dinner and discussion on
Thursday, December 6, 2007, at 7:00 PM, at the Hamburger Hamlet in
Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia.  At the restaurant, look for a
small sign displaying 'DCT' at the table where we are seated.  It is
not necessary to RSVP.

After the restaurant closes, the meeting may move for a while to the
tables in the main corridor of the underground shops area, about 150
feet from Hamburger Hamlet along the corridor which leads back towards
the Metro entrance, and go on until about 11 pm.

The Hamburger Hamlet is accessible from the Crystal City Metro station
(on the Blue and Yellow lines) without going outdoors.  At the top of
the first escalator leading up from the Metro station fare gates (the
second escalator goes to the outdoors), turn right into the Crystal
City Shops North, and walk to the Hamburger Hamlet (about a 3 minute
walk), winding along the main corridor of the underground shopping
mall.  It's hard to get lost, because the side corridors are short
dead ends.  There are a few stairsteps in the main corridor.  If
you are walking through a corridor which is not lined with shops
and restaurants, you probably made a wrong turn at the top of the
escalator, and you need to go back to the escalator and enter the
Crystal City Shops North.  There are usually some small brochures at
the information desk just inside the entrance to the Crystal City
Shops North, which include a map of the Crystal City Shops.

The Hamburger Hamlet is located in the Crystal City underground,
in the Crystal City Shops North, and the restaurant is directly
accessible by surface road on Crystal Drive, almost directly across
the street from the Water Park on Crystal Drive.  The actual street
address of the complex is 1725 Jeff. Davis Hwy., and that is what is
marked above the entrance nearest the Hamburger Hamlet, though that
entrance is in fact on Crystal Drive.  The Hamburger Hamlet is just
inside the doorway, on the right.  There are some metered parking
spaces along Crystal Drive in that vicinity, and the underground
parking has been free of charge in the evenings.
