Yeah, isn't that amazing? I grew up in NJ, and I go there from time
to time. I rarely see NJ license plates on the Turnpike. Weird.
I'd also like to see it happen somewhere toward the "middle" of the
coast. While it's true that the southern states (at least NC, SC, and
GA) are less densely populated than the Great New England Sprawl,
there *is* life outside of Boston.
If VCF East is reasonably accessible to the Washington DC area (and
I'd say NJ counts) you can count on me and at least a half dozen of my
friends to help out with all the setup stuff. And I'd plan to
exhibit, as well.
If its held in NJ/PA I could help out and exhibit, also. The Raritan
center is a nice location.
Another NJ option might be the South Jersey Expo Center in Cherry
Hill. It's about 30 minutes further south on the NJ Turnpike, but
about as accessible (as well as being accessible to I295). Basically,
it's over the river from Philadelphia as opposed to the Raritan
Center which is basically over the river from NY.
