2. Chicago area would be great

easy to get to, lots of hotels, good public transportation, lots to do...

and centrally located.

3. Sounds Like A Good Deal

we'll have to keep this recommeded since you are going for the Yankee towns What about Nashville? Feb. 11-14 would be a good time. Or St. Louis? Or Middle America

7. St. Louis is probably the most centrally located

8. Seems to me the most logical place would be the one most populated with DUers

Why make the vast majority spend money to fly to somewhere in the middle instead having a lesser number spend money to reach the largest concentration? It makes no sense, other than the 'feel-good' aspect of meeting in the 'middle' where plane travel essentially makes geographic location irrelevant.

13. It's A Midwest Meet Up

not a US meetup

9. Chicago has had some kickass meetups

The reports and pictures posted on them made me want to be there so bad. Denver 08 sounds good, maybe some smaller regional meet ups first, one thing though it has to be out of your area, party with new Du'ers.

11. Bloomington, MN!

:woohoo:

We can all windowshop and count all the empty store spaces at Mall of America, then go up to Ruby Tuesdays and get busy! Oops, wait, they got closed down 5 or 6 years ago because of that... but I think the Laugh Factory is still there... :rofl:

12. Sorry, Pal. The Coasties DO have ALL he Fun and will CONTINUE

to have it all
