Putting in a request for somewhere in the Northeast U.S. next year,
if people are willing to accept the weather. I'd offer to host it
here in Rochester (at RIT, I think they'd go for it) but the
conditions can be expected to be similar to Murray Hill's from IWP9
2007.

Northeast US, say january or feb., skipping next year, would
be great for me.

of skiing...?

I´m trading snow & extra hours flying.
I don´t like snow too much, but making a long trip
longer is worse, IMHO.

If you want skiing then you want to hold it in Whistler (British
Columbia).

But I would *strongly* recommend against skipping a year if it's held
there :-P

Colocation with Bondi Beach may not be bad either.

You, and Summit Police, have met Ms Wendy - Mr Hensbergen
Pickup-Truck. I will give in and fly if needed. What else do I do with
all these damned frequent flyer miles?

With all due respect,

There are things about Whi$tler that would pose problems for some.

Is it possible to rent a room in the Longhorn? And if there are too
many people, some of us could go on Blackcomb.

Whistler got its name from the common reaction to readers of its rate sheet.

My orthopaedic surgeon would disown me - and he's a valuable asset.
