[go] For those going to Princeton meetings

[Mike Cherry]

Here are directions from Kara on getting to Princeton, New Jersey.   
Fly to Newark, New Jersey (airport code EWR).  From the airport you  
can take the train to Princeton, then a taxi.  You can also take a  
shuttle from the airport they have a special form for Princeton  
reservations (http://www.hudsonltd6.com/cgi-bin/air1/res).  You can  
also take a car (http://www.a1limo.com/).

More details below from Kara.
