Well, that settles it. Looks like we are going to have to have a mini con in Kalamazoo then. Maybe we can get a banquet room somewhere at some hotel and do the Lan Play thing or something. Or if someone in Kalamazoo has a business with a T1..

The possiblities are endless. Who knows, this could have Midwest wide appeal.
