Louisville,
Kentucky, is an ideal site for any convention. We are
located in the heart of United States, we have ample convention
facilities (but don't choose the weekend where we have the
Future Farmers, NHRA Nationals, etc). We have great entertainment
facilities (food, music, horse racing), a riverboat casino within
a 20-minute drive, a Deja Vu (and plenty of similar facilties),
scenic riverboat cruises (these without gambling), a bridge that
goes nowhere but stimulates endless debate.
KFC ?
Kentucky Festival of ol' Computers ?
:)) (I know it's a lamer, I just cundn't relist ... low willpower)
Better than Kentucky Fried Computers... but we have those, too. 8D
Is there no snow in January ?
If yes, please go ahead and start organizeing.
<WHOOSH>
Doug, having previously thought he was standing in a row
of assembled veterans of olf hardware, suddenly finds
everyone has taken a strategic step backwards, leaving
him the leader!
I could help with some logisitic details, but organizing
something like this is currently beyond my 43-year old
competence.
To answer the other question, we had snow in January 2000,
the first in quite some time. Usually it just rains all
winter. It also snowed on Christmas Day, again, the first
since perhaps 1977/78.
I will make inquiries to the convention & tourism bureau
as to the schedule of other conventions.
Horse Racing is on vacation in January, however, in case
anyone had their heart set on it.
