Alright, we got in!  Dave was right: you really should mention that
you are attending the conference.  Our travel agent was told to do
this, but forgot/didn't: thus, they got the "no rooms" reponse. Tell
'em why your reserving, and there should be no problems (unless of
course they really are full :-).
