I plan on running one of my courses in DC/MD area.  Prolly not till 2013, but it will happen.

Where in the NE are you?

Excellent story and comments.  Thanks for sharing.  It is amazing how much information people release to total strangers... isn't it?

Thanks and keep reading.

Thank you for the great question.  The Framework is the basis for SE in my opinion.  The course follows the book more closely but with practical skills throughout the 5 days.

The Framework is closely related too, but it is not an outline for the course.

Does this help?

Are you coming to the class in Seattle?
