care less really where or when we meet, as I am committed to be there
regardless. But would like at a location with cheap air fares, lots
of flights, a cheap hotels ($40-$60 and not $140-$260), a
reasonable sized and cheap room to meet in, a location with a free
shuttle from the airport, and naturally a free breakfast in the morning.
If not that, just come to my house in ND and we can meet for free
in my basement.</span></font></div>

February 20, or March 5 would be the best dates, and either Los
Angeles or Indianapolis
would be preferred locations.<br clear="none">

I don't make these decisions--I'm just trying to facilitate the discussion so I
can make educated guesses.<br clear="none">

We're trying to plan our next training event, and I'll encourage February 6 or
13 for the training event. We're leaning towards the West Coast for this.

My history of correctly guessing the weekend and location of LNC meetings has
been pretty poor lately--so keep that in mind before making decisions based on

Staff is considering the possibility of another training session, possibly in
February, and while we would probably attempt to avoid the LNC meeting, that's
not 100% required. <br clear="none">

We'd like to announce the date and location in the upcoming LP New if possible.
