Hi, You'll need to get off the train at Central, and get on another train heading to hornsby via chatswood (the North Shore line). It's walking distance from St. Leonards station I think, though I haven't yet looked at the map. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

Get off the train at St Leonards, walk through the ticket barriers and walk straight ahead until you reach the highway. Turn left (toward the city). The IBM building, 601 Pacific Hwy, is a couple of hundred metres away on the left (i.e. the north side of the highway), near Westpac Bank. If you reach Albany St, you've gone too far. If you go past RNS hospital, turn around and go back the other way :-) Cheers, John -- In My Experience, which includes 25 years with WeBuildHighways, a traffic engineer's point of view involves trying to see out through intestine and abdominal wall. -- Mike Andrews -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

How would the parking be there at this time of day [if any exists at all close by] ?

Lots of meter parking, most of which becomes free at 6:00pm (or maybe 6:30pm). Most areas have a two hour limit, and I think it's about $2/hr. Closer to Crows Nest some areas are metered until 10:00pm. I don't often park in the streets around there, but I'd expect you'd be able to find a spot not too far away (within 10 minutes walk). Cheers, John -- OK, so it's not really thermite. It uses Mg++ instead of Al+++. I suppose they figured that having the entire box disappear in a lake of molten iron wouldn't make it easy to eat. -- Shalom Septimus -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
