True, but I've since learned that there is a large McKinley memorial
in Buffalo.  It's an obelisk in a traffic circle.  And it's almost right
next door to the con hotel.

I've also learned that I should have gotten a ticket to the Exchange
Street station, which is less than a mile from the con, not to the
Depew station, which is ten miles away.  Sigh.
