Oh great and mighty Sellam, have you considered the Worcester Centrum
Centre, located in sunny Worcester, MA, about 1 hour from Boston, and 1 hour
from Providence, RI (straight shot down Rt. 146)??
http://www.centrumcentre.com/, or
Worcester's Centrum Centre
50 Foster Street
Worcester, MA 01608
Phone: 508.755.6800
Fax: 508.929.0111
I have NO affiliation with them, but it's about a 1/2 hour drive from my
home, so I do have a somewhat vested interest :-)
Worcester has all the usual big city amenities, and even it's own airport!
Thanks!

Well, since we are dropping names :)
I would ask for the New Jersey Expo Center in Raritan NJ to be considered.
It's right off the NJ Turnpike, the only road outsiders consider to exist in
NJ anyways.

I'll second the NJ location since it's nice and close to me -- unless we
could have it in my back yard... :-)

I would also help if it was in NJ (though I would hope for
closer, as that makes it, I think, about 4 hours from boston)

I don't think it should be moved too far northward though as
it then become quite a decent drive from anywhere to the south, even
from the D.C. area where I happen to live. My original
suggestion a
number of months ago was the Boston area, though I wouldn't mind
it
being closer such as PA either.

Thanks for the tip! I'll check it out tonight. I finally got all the
data I need to find the optimal location based on all the survey responses
I received. I mapped zip codes to lattitude & longitude coordinates and
will try to use that intelligently to locate the prime locale.
