Hackers On Planet Earth -- "The Last H.O.P.E." -- Hotel Pennsylvania, New York, NY

Hackers On Planet Earth (H.O.P.E.) is a bi-annual conference of hackers, tinkerers, free-thinkers, political activists, and technology enthusiasts held in New York City at the Hotel Pennsylvania.  Unfortunately, there are now plans to tear down the Hotel Penn, so this next con became dubbed The Last HOPE.  Whether it's the last HOPE ever, or just the last at Hotel Penn, I think it's a fitting name, and should be an interesting and informative time.
