Excuse me, but isn't this in the boonies way outside town? Are we  
going to be stuck in a $200 a night hotel with no reasonable  
alternative accommodations eating vastly overpriced hotel food and  
facing a one-hour commute to anywhere else?

We should know by now that isolated resorts ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE as  
meeting locations. Even if they're vaguely close to cool places like  
Dublin.

It's not too late. Please cancel the meeting now. Even if it costs a  
bunch of money and means we have to skip that meeting date.

Yes, I'm serious.

And no, I don't play golf, which appears to be the entire focus of  
this sort of location.
