Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Just for a rough idea, May 19-22, hotel and flight, sorted by 'lowest' on Orbitz:
Cincinnati - San Francisco 461
Cincinnati - Phoenix 387
Cincinnati - Seattle 388
Dallas - San Francisco 438
Dallas - Phoenix 413
Dallas - Seattle 373
These all tend to be 'outlying' locations, naturally.
As far as something more central... well, that was this year's goal and the vote went to New Orleans. It's too late for "I told you so"s. And now its the West Coast's turn.

Whereas NOLA was less expensive for me than the trips I've taken to Oakland or Burbank.
I repeat, weird!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Not disagreeing.
I also think it has a lot to do with when you buy ticket, too. There is no rhyme or reason.

I think June would be more convenient for me than April or May.
All of the possible host cities have advantages for me.

Interesting. My comment wasn't an "I told you so"; it was just my opinion. It's not written in stone that the location of the F2F has to change every year. Moving locales was a thoughtful idea, so that the travel/financial burden could theoretically be equally distributed.
That said, my opinion, which I offered up since the discussion about the 2006 F2F has started, is that it might be a better idea to keep it central.
And now its the West Coast's turn.
Yeah, I get that. Like I said in my previous post.

Just a quick search for Phoenix:
Newark - Phoenix $364
DCArea - Phoenix $238-$328
Does Vegas count as West Coast? There are almost always chep flights there from everywhere!

Vegas = Pacific Time, I thnk that counts as West Coast.
No localistas, though.

LA-istas kinda count as local.
I love Vegas.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Vegas is certainly not central, so, I think, counts as West. Denver, I think, is where the fuzzy-ness starts setting in.
Teppy, if we're going central-ish all the time, we should get that decided soon, and it needs to be voted on.
Anybody have any thoughts on when would be reasonable to vote on dates?
