I’ve just received this message from Christian Askeland. If you want to participate, you can leave your messages here and Christian will read them (I will not attend the SBL meeting).
For those who love Coptic, for those who love sushi, an evening out has been organized, and all are invited! We have reserved a table at Geisha Sushi and Sake Bar. Please RSVP in the comments, so we can add on to the 19:45 reservation. If you are attending the Papyrology and Early Christian Backgrounds section, you can follow Christian Askeland to the restaurant. Beer enthusiast, René Falkenberg, will lead a night on the town for those interested after dinner.

I have dinner plans but would be interested in the beer afterwards! Alin, I think you have my contact info — can you call/email/text/fb when you leave the restaurant?
I’ll join up for dinner and after. Thanks for organizing
I can’t make it. But if y’all are looking for a topic for dinner conversation, I’d be interested in your thoughts on the production-date of Sahidic codex P. Palau-Ribes Inv. Nr. 182 (the Gospel of Mark, at Barcelona.
for a Japanese coptologist, it looks like as if it was tailored for me!
I’ll come!
I will be there
