I just heard that a prospective roommate for SBL won’t be coming, so I’ve got a room for 4 reserved but right now only 2 of us are confirmed (Friday night, 16th-Tuesday, 20th). If anybody doesn’t have reservations/plans, we’d be interested in talking with you. Assuming 4 people the cost will be about $50/night per person.
The hotel is Westin San Diego (formerly Wyndham Emerald Plaza, 400 West Broadway, San Diego, CA 92101). It’s number 11 on the SBL meeting booklet (see pages 8-9).
Mass murderers, psychopaths, and preterists need not apply.

Ben,
A friend and I haven’t yet booked a room at SBL. Are Southern Baptists accepted?

Ok, send me your CV, a writing sample, and a list of references and I can let you know in a couple of weeks.
I’m a Southern Baptist (of sorts), so no problem there. I’ll shoot you an email.

Strange to come across such positive engagment with Irenaeus alongside dislike of preterists (or is that just equivalent to ‘dispensationalist’ these days in North America?) cf. AdvHaer 5.22.1; 5.23.1.

Any spare beds, Ben? I’m looking to share a room with somebody and Rob directed me to your weblog.
Please send your reply to ovicreanga@yahoo.com. Thanks,

Sorry Ovi, that will fill out the room.
Mark,
On the premil-amil-preterist continuum, preterists are the opposites of premil/dispensational types, as I understand it.
