I'm looking for someone to share my room at the Delta Centre-Ville during the worldcon?

I now have my plane ticket. I'll be arriving one week before, as I'll be visiting my mom in Québec City for the first time in 5 years. To get there, I rented a car from Enterprise, instead of Hertz as I usually do - I was quite annoyed with the latter's site quoting one price, but letting me know about all the extra fees only at the very end. Bad enough that the rental, not including insurance, would cost more than my plane ticket to cross half the continent, but a fee for snow-tire use in the middle of summer is ridiculous - even for the Great White North.

Hm, lets talk about this. Do you want to meet in downtown Oakland on your trip, and we can talk? Jesso's instead of Pacific Coast?

That sounds good. Which evening would you have in mind?

Anytime is good for me. You're more constrained, I suspect.

We can aim for 6pm, if that's ok. Are reservations needed? I wonder if others might be interested in joining us for dinner.

Sounds good. 6PM on a Monday night shouldn't require a reservation.
No problem if others want to show up.

It looks like it'll be you and me, plus David Goldfarb, who'll show up at about 6:30pm, and possibly Kathryn from Sunnyvale. I'll probably show up first so ask for Serge's table at the front.

Well, it does snow in August in UshuaĆ­a, and Stanley, and Puerto Montt...

I knew I should have been more specific and referred to the southern part of the Great White North.
