Hello, everyone -

Sorry to bother anyone not coming to SHOT Milan, but for those who are,
we've been asked to spread the word that it's wise to avoid taking a taxi
from the airport to hotel, which will run over $100....  Instead, the
“Malpensa Express” train from MXP airport is convenient, runs 5.30 am to
just before midnight, costs Euro 13 pp one-way, with tickets online, at
station, or by “tap.”  Arrives Milan at Station Cadorna, a 6-8 minute walk
to conference hotel.  Tom Misa has tweeted all this, plus detailed Google
map with **walking** routes from Station Cadorna to conference hotel:

Hope to see people in Milan soon!  yours, amy bix
