Time zones works as a rough measure, but there are outliers like Detroit which were mentioned above. I don't know that it needs to be a hard and fast rule.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
East coast, West coast, Flyover?
That works.

move out and draw fire
And just CONUS? Because it's not likely we'll have an F2F in Hawaii or on an Alaska cruise?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I know, meara! Used to be I had family in Indiana and Hawaii and we lived in Arizona and we could all harumph at everybody, but now nsm.
Anyway, yeah, time zones would put Indiana on east coast, so I dunno.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Barring an F2F party plane that picks up every Buffista at their doorstep, I can't see a Hawaii or Alaska F2F being affordable options. (Which is a shame because both would be pretty awesome placed to visit with you guys.)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Weren't we talking of Buffista Island actually being mobile, to go with the seasons? Who's to say we couldn't make it go so far as Hawaii and Alaska as the spirit moves?
If you're gonna dream, dream big.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
However, I would say that the pimper/organizer should live in or have intimate knowledge of the city
Why?
Because what self-respecting city would want to be pimped by a total stranger?
which leads, of course, to the question of what self-respecting city would host us?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Sorry to interrupt the planning, but DebetEsse and I are going to be in DC this weekend for the rally, and we wanted to know if any DCistas would be interested in getting together for dinner Saturday night.
