this should help a lil

Drive time to Encinitas should be around 60 minutes.

Directions:
Take the 5 Freeway SOUTH through southern Orange County, across the San Diego County line, past the San Onofre Nuclear Power Plant & Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base.
Continue past Oceanside & Carlsbad, then you will reach Encinitas.
EXIT on Encinitas Blvd.
Make a RIGHT at the exit, and head WEST towards the beach for 3/4 of a mile on Encinitas Blvd.
At the light, (Vulcan Blvd.) make a LEFT.
Immediately after the LEFT on Vulcan Blvd. enter the Parking Lot on your RIGHT.

Ok OC crew. I just got back from scoping the Irvine Spectrum parking lot.

Please use the previously supplied map of the spectrum.

Specifically, head towards the southern most part of the parking lot and meet at lightpoles F6 or F7. Once you get there you will know what I mean.

Edit: There really is only 1 gas station that is close by. Wait, make that 2 if you count Costco, so please be sure to fill up before you get there.

The very first post of PAGE 11 will have everything posted once again, right on TOP.

Nothing has changed, so caravan locations, times, meet location is all the same !

Hope you get your car back today !

Promotional merchandise for a band, record label, or other entity in the music business, usually distributed at concerts.

May include t-shirts, stickers, promo CDs, posters, etc. Often free, but not necessarily; a t-shirt or record purchased at a concert might still be considered swag, especially if it is a design or release that is not readily available in the mass market.

Many independent record labels throw in a handful of free swag when they ship out mail-order packages (stickers, sampler CDs, etc).

The chief difference between swag and regular merchandise is that its purpose is not to make a profit, but to promote the band/label, and reward its supporters by giving them something cool and unique.
I picked up some great swag at the concert last night

Great question....
as a part of the National Security apparatus, however, I'm all over it !

There is a back-up plan..... the ENCINITAS City Hall just across the street.
I checked it out personally, and it's a huge lot that can easily accomodate our meet if necessary.

Actually, today I went to Encinitas and scoped out the lot one more time. I spoke to the lady that drives the FAST bus in and out of the station, and asked precisely that question: "Any increase in security concerns for this or any other of the Coaster stations ?" She had not been informed of any, and there's no beef up of security other than the one regular security guard.

So, I think we should be OK, and if there are any problems, please let me handle them, as I have spoken with the heavy's of the NCTD which run the Coaster stations.

Carlos
