Hiya - San Diego is friggin expensive, and we don't have a small campus feel at all. Robert McDonald and I worked out the costs a few years ago and we'd be almost double what Asheville conf cost folks.
It's killing me not to have you all out to paradise in Feb, but I can barely afford to live here :) D -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries [mailto:code4...@listserv.nd.edu] On Behalf Of Walter Lewis Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2010 11:21 AM To: CODE4LIB@LISTSERV.ND.EDU Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Code4Lib 2011 Proposals On 3 Mar 10, at 9:52 AM, Julia Bauder wrote: > Also, the farther north we go, the more likely that snow+airplane > incompatibilities will foil speakers' (and attendees'!) travel plans at the > last minute, which isn't fun for anyone. > > somewhere_out_of_nor'easter_and_lake_effect_range_in_february++ Actually there is a clear line (at least on the eastern half of the continent) where the further north you go, the *less* snow you got this. Buffalo is trailing a number of places on the east coast in total snow accumulation and Toronto has been dusted a few times this winter, with nothing of real substance. Detroit and Chicago were well below seasonal averages last time I checked. ALL of that said, where are the San Diego gang or the folks from Miami? Walter who can only dream of pubs with open patios in February
