at Bell Atlantic:

OUR MEETINGS AT BELL ATLANTIC.  SEE THE DIRECTIONS BELOW.


IMPORTANT NOTE:
-----------------
It is requested (but not required) that you RSVP if you are 
planning to attend. Bell Atlantic's security personnel prefer
to have a list of attendees for off-hours meetings.  Your 
RSVP should include your name and your company affiliation.  
If you choose not to RSVP, Patrick Ryan (our Bell Atlantic host)
will have to sign you in personally and it will just take a 
little more time.  Once you are signed in, you will be given
a temporary pass.  Note that the attendee list will only be 
used for the purposes of this meeting and will not be passed 
on to any other entity within Bell Atlantic.  You can RSVP 
by sending email to patrick.m.ryan@bell-atl.com or by

DIRECTIONS:
-----------
1. Via Metro
Take the Orange Line to the Court House stop.  There is 
only one escalator up out of the mezzanine.  At the top of 
the escalator, you will walk down a hallway.  At the end of 
the hallway you will have three ways you can go.  Take 
the left exit (the one that is *not* Colonial Village or Courthouse 
Plaza).  A short escalator will take you out of the station 
and leave you facing Clarendon Blvd.  Take an immediate U-turn 
to the right to go down a driveway.  If you walk past a long 
row of newspaper boxes, you went the right way.  At the
end of the little driveway, you will hit 15th St.  Cross the 
street and turn left.  Take the next right, which will be 
N. Courthouse Rd.  Proceed past the Arlington County Courthouse 
and cross 14th St.  Right after you cross 14th St., you will pass 
a small brick building.  Walk down the set of stairs next to the
building, you will find yourself standing in Bell Atlantic Plaza.  
Enter the building at 1320 N. Courthouse Road.


2. Driving
- Take I-66, Rt. 50, or GW Parkway to Rosslyn
- From Rosslyn: Proceed west on Wilson Blvd.  Turn left on 
N. Courthouse Rd.  There is limited street parking on N. 
Courthouse, Veitch, 14th, and 15th.
- From Rt. 50: Get off at the N. Courthouse Road exit.  
Bell Atlantic Plaza is just above 14th St at 1320 N. 
Courthouse Road


3. Getting into the building:
Enter the Bell Atlantic building at 1320 N. Courthouse Road through the 
plaza entrance (east side of 1320).  If the doors at 1320 are locked, 
go in the 1310 entrance and ask the guard to direct you to 1320.  Once 
in 1320, turn left and go to the guard's desk to get your visitor pass.  
Give the guard your name and state that you are attending the DC 
Smalltalk Users Group meeting in the Arlington 2 Room.
After getting your pass, turn back toward the door where you came in.  
Proceed through the doors marked "Forum".  Once through the doors, turn 
left down the hallway.  The Arlington 2 room is down the hall on the 
right side.
  

*** Refreshments (drinks and snacks) will be served.  
Please bring $2 per person to help pay for the refreshments.
