Joe, That has my vote. Living about 35 minutes west of Atlantic City would guarantee my attending. I’d pay the registration fee myself. There are some great Coastal Plains wineries in the area. And the New Jersey Motor Sport Park is not far away in Millville, NJ. For golfers there the Seaview Golf resort. Thank you, --- John J.

Choices have consequences. Choosing not to fly means missing things that flying allows. Like this, perhaps.

Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: WWRUG13 Date and Location Announcement
Well, those folks can take a train, bus, motorcycle, or automobile if they don't care to fly. Or, I suppose, depending on where they're coming from, walk, run, bike, or sail. They might even be able to find some other Listers who don't want to fly for whatever reason to caravan with. (ooh...road trip!!) Seems to me that if a person *really* wants to go, there are plenty of possible options for getting to the conference.

For me flights from the East Coast to San Jose or San Francisco are a small fraction of the cost to attend the conference. In turn there are many folks coming in from out of country and flying into a major airport on the East or West coast reduces costs for them and is more convenient.
