I don't think it matters, because historically Mem Day weekend isn't workable for a lot of us anyway.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.

FYI, Wiscon is held in Madison over Memorial Day weekend.
Let's not try to double up on a con weekend.
I'm all in favor of doing it the same weekend as the con. It would be one more possible thing to do, an interesting thing!

I'll be out of luck if we pick Memorial Day weekend—my cousin's getting married in New Orleans that Sunday.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Yeah, but if I was there and WisCon was going on, I'd want to go to that. And be bitter if I couldn't. Or be torn between hanging with Buffistas and going to con stuff. Much as there would seem to be a synergy in the two.

There's also a bus service running from O'Hare to Madison. At least, there used to be back in the '80s, and I can't think of any reason it would have been canceled.
when I was there a few years ago, they still did.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
fwiw, the dates I could conceivably do would be April 5th, 12th or 19th. 12th would be best for me. And I absolutely don't care where it is, because the money's going to be much of a muchness, I would think.
