Re: COMMON conf room rates....

[Bryce Martin <BMartin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

sorry about the offtopic post in a non-technical subject, but I couldn't 
resist....

You think people complain about the cost of COMMON... wait until they want 
to see a World Series game in NY as "something to do".  Then you'll hear 
them REALLY scream about money.  It'll cost them more to see one game than 
to attend the conference.

 No joy there. Southwest doesn't fly to Long Beach, and Ontario and OC's

 Try Long Beach or Orange County.

 No kidding about the eastbound flights. I'll be stuck in LA for an extra
 night this week because of the hassles in getting to LAX for a flight to
 either Austin or San Antonio.

 Scott,

 You're on the right track, but I'd still prefer the SE, San Anton or
 Vegas...due to logistics and costing factors...It's easier to get
 flights
 going WEST at the end of the day than going east...

 If you have the conference in downtown Chicago (in "the loop") it's
 going to be outrageously expensive.  The one they had in Spring 2005 is
 an example, on Wacker Drive in the loop... very expensive.

 There are a ton of hotels and facilities out by O'Hare that will cost
 half as much.  Maybe less than half.  And since they're closer to the
 airport, they are more convenient for travellers.

 I like Chicago because it's (roughly) in the center of the USA. It's
 easy to get to from anywhere.  The travel times aren't so steep.

 Reno was awful with the amount of time it took to get to/from...
 Anaheim -- or other Los Angeles / Orange County type locations -- are a
 little tough to travel from the East Coast.  Especially coming home
 where you lose 3 hours.  It takes up the whole day.  Though I'd prefer
 the LA area to Reno, because at least you can get direct flights!

 Denver is another good choice as far as flights go.  (Not sure about
 their hotels or conference facilities, though.)  Minneapolis, too.
