TAM3 location suggestions

I have to vote for Cleveland because well..its darn convenient for me :) and would you believe I have not been to the rock and roll hall of fame yet, shame on me :(

they might even be able to set something up at the science center as well...just an idea.

New York isn't a bad idea either, at least its closer than Vegas.
 
who cares as long i don't have to accommodate any of you my drunken friends...

Depends, what colours are you wearing, Sam? :)

(Says someone who once went to Glascow with 2 rugby shirts intended to stand between the skin and the atmosphere, not to say "I want to be screamed at". I bought some new shirts.)

Though if we want a half way house twixt UK and US, how about

Why not "the beautiful new hills and Cumbernauld"?

(Last time I was there, the development was being advertised on EVERY, and I mean EVERY form of medium there was. It looked like Windsor, On. Little boxes on the hillside, Malvina Reynolds incarnate.)

NYC here too! NYC has it all, it's irresistible. :) Maybe it could also be in early February, when ticket prices lower considerably everywhere?

NYC in February? Have you lost your mind, woman???!!! LOL!

I have one solid suggestion. Let's change the time of the year. Fall anywhere is good. I say we have it in October. Then we can go somewhere interesting in a low-peak travelling season and STILL have some good weather. :D

But, other than that, NYC is good.

I agree with changing the time of year completely. Winter travel can be a b!tch and three weeks after Christmas is not the best of timing considering that many of us have suffered a complete cashectomy over the holidays. Summer would be much better I think.

Here's a thought. Change it to mid-August or early September, then move it to Indianapolis, and the gamers among us can go to TAM and GenCon back to back.

Two weeks before labor day, the traffic around Yellowstone (i.e. Gardiner) dies way, way back. You get there from SLC or Bozeman via car, and the scenery is spectacular. The prices aren't particularly high, the beds are comfortable, and you can tour the site of what might have been the biggest volcanic disaster ever to befall the earth, to boot.

You may, at this point, have realized I'm not a big city sort of curmudgeon. :)
 
jj- I thought the original "Little Boxes on the Hillside " were at Daly City?
Bozeman- Damn fine museum as I recall (Museum of the Rockies).
Dunno if the volcanic disaster you refer to is the probable future one at Yellowstone or the entire Columbia River / Snake River/ Scablands story, but you could always take out megavolcano insurance. (Likewise mega quake cover for New Madrid- it's been a while since it moved much after all. Just think how happy the woowoos would be if a JREF convention was hit by a Richter 11).

Anyway, now we have you transatlantypes thinking about other countries, how about Baghdad? Hotels should be cheap.

Actually Estes Park I could go for. Get some skiing in at the same time. Kind of hard getting up the skyline highway in January though. And that new Denver airport-ech!
 
Baghdad? Not a bad idea. Plenty of history and you never know things might have calmed down in a year.
