I say we have it in Chicago if anywhere. It's in the middle of the country (not exactly but middle area) so the drive would be even for people farther away. Plus, the O'Hare airport is there so people from anywhere could probably fly in. Plus, they have good hot dogs and the Cubs 😀.

About 39 degrees, 50 minutes north by 83 degrees 20 minutes west. Or, about 25 miles west of Columbus, and 50 miles east of Dayton - about halfway between Springfield and Columbus.

ha! I have a plan:
1) we hold it in southern Western Europe (eg Spain)... nobody lives there so it's equally unfair for everybody
2) we tell someone who lives north of Heidelberg and plans to go by car (hmmm Shavi?) (damn that was embarassing... I was gonna go say SirLoseALot... and then I looked up where exactly Belgium is... and noticed heidelberg would ...[text shortened]... try to make my French teacher come and give me a lift 😉

Anyways, London is the best international and national connection.
So, if we do have this conference what would we do besides chess? I say that we have a live debate between Darv and no1. With Russ asking the questions of course. We could also see how can come up with the most original insult. Darv, no1, Ravello, the guttersnipers, former ISBHOD clan, would probably be the front runners. There'd have to be a dunk-tank aswell. Any other ideas?

I'm going to float something here. I think that the RHP community should get together in '06 in a city determined either by the member(s) with the most zeal for organizing it or by a member vote. I've found my time here thus far to be alternately invigorating, infuriating, hysterically funny, and thought provoking. I think it would be alo ...[text shortened]... beer with.
