Have you priced flights to Seattle, Sandy? I have in the recent past (I have friends there, and was looking into attending a conference in the area), and it's not pretty...at least from where I am, which is a major midwestern hub...best I've been able to find is $500-600 round trip, which seems like a lot to me. I have not priced anything overseas, though, since right now I can't even afford a modest hotel nearby for a few days, much less the price of getting somewhere farther away!

Wouldn't it be nice if we could set up a virtual gathering and bypass the travel expenses? Or that we will all become rich in the next year?

Peace,
Dawn
