Cool! I vote both!
I'll call Bistrot du Coin for a reservation in a week or two I guess.
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

That might work! I have rehearsal at 1pm and I hope not to have too much work to do before that. I may have to let you know on Wed evening.
I'll certainly look into tickets. If anyone else is interested let me know.

The Hellmouth and Back Of Beyond were also brought up. The rest of the responses were either pro-anywhere or pro-PNW.
Okay - Seattle seems to have won the informal poll by an overwhelming margin. Should I put it up to an official vote, or are people okay with that?
If we do not put it to an official vote, I'll go ahead with the polling with the July dates added in, narrow it down to 2 or 3 weekends, and vote from there. How does that sound?

That sounds right.

I would still do an official poll for Seattle v. other options, but maybe in conjunction with a revised date poll that skews later in the year.

I think that you want to decide on location first, and then poll dates. It seems to work out better that way. That said, I'd be happy with declaring Seattle the winner already and moving on to dates.

Btw, Jon, did you know that preferential voting is in full effect for SF's next election?

I will just beg (beg, I tell you!) that we avoid the weekends of July 24-26 because Jilli and I are out of town. We REALLY don't want to miss the F2F in our own town. There would be weeping.
Also July 31-Aug 2 is Seafair. The city will be crazy busy and much more expensive.
