I've just gotten an opportunity to participate in a pretty cool activism initiative (not hobby-related but a kickass school-related thing nonetheless) next month in Boston. I figure while I'm there, I might as well work when I'm not busy with that stuff. Here's the thing, though: I have never been to your fair city, so I'm pretty much clueless about how to go about all that. Instead of asking y'all for recommendations, I figured it'd be easier to get some input on what to avoid, especially when it comes to where to stay (it does need to be reasonably close to downtown, though). Hell, even if the answer is "don't bother," I'd appreciate the heads up! Thoughts?
