Who will be at SBL this year? What will you be doing there? (I won't be there, I'm just curious ...)

I'm giving a paper on the patristic interpretation of Isaiah's prophecies, in the Greek Bible section S21-219a on Monday afternoon.

I'll be there--selling books. I feel like a pusher selling candy to little kids : )

I'd also be interested in the highlights - what presentations people find interesting and useful, how Jeffrey Gibson's elister get-together goes, etc. Feel free to post anything interesting here ...

And James, what are the hot books this year?

Dan Streett has announced a brown bag lunch session where people will communicate in Koine.
Just grab your lunch at the food court and bring it over to the Intercontinental. It’ll be just like real συπόσιον, minus the couches, drinking-games, slaves, flute-girls and general debauchery.
Ok, so it won’t be like a συπόσιον at all, more like a bespectacled nerd-fest.
LOL!
