Yes, this is exactly the point that should have been raised first. We are
spread far and wide it seems. Kevin Stumf is about the closest to me as far
as the folks on this list whom I know their hometowns. He's over in
Kitchener, ON and that's about 3 hours drive. Another fellow on the list
(who's a relatively infrequent poster here and forgot his name [sorry!!])
lives east of here in Ithaca and that's about 3.5 hours away. Pittsburgh is
3 hours too. There're several close together around Boston region though.
Everybody else of us Easterners are farther yet from me so it truly is more
difficult to keep personal contact unlike some of you Westerners who seem
to be pocketed in SoCal, NoCal, OR, WA. This is a big continent for sure.
We can just visit by "computer" I guess.

And for the ride to VCF, why don't you east
coast guys
join and buy some kind of group ticket for plane or
Amtrak ? Or jut rent a Van ? 3 days driving (lets make
this 5 days, including some dumpsters to dive :), great
talks _and_ enough space for the 'small' findings at VCF...
That's a good idea but we're too far apart. I think Christian is in up
state NY and I'm in central Florida so we're nearly as far apart as it is
from here to VCF. At moment I'm saving my money to go to a conference in
Portland at the end of August and I can't afford both trips.
