I've been to New York. If I had to choose between New York and a vacation
in Europe I think I would take my chances with Europe.

I'm planning on taking a bus rather than flying, in order to save
money. A bus from Wisconsin to Louisiana isn't too long a trip.

SIGGRAPH 2001: Los Angeles, California
SIGGRAPH 2002: San Antonio, Texas
SIGGRAPH 2003: San Diego, California
This year: New Orleans, Louisiana
Last year: Los Angeles, California
The year before: Orlando, Florida
Always in July or August, and always someplace hot. :-P
Maybe the facility rental is cheaper then...

San Diego is generaly cool and temperate. Might be a good year to
attend. Only an hour and a half drive for me :)

Apparently it isn't going to be in N.Y. according to Mark Gordon :-)

Point taken, but I've simply got to see the Empire State Building and Statue
of Liberty one of these days.

Thankyou Mark, I wasn't sure about it at all. I only noticed someone listed
under a SIGGRAPH 2001 line there at the 2000 web site apparently a committee
member maybe located in New York.

I was seriously considering going this year, but I'm very busy this
summer... I just don't think I can make the time. :-( Also, nobody who I
know with here in Florida is going, and I'd rather not take a vacation
alone.

There is one confirmed POVer very near New Orleans, LA who just this week
turned up on the world of povray users map.
I have been invited to go along on a flight to Seattle, WA to visit relatives
along with my parents in the first week of August. The SIGGRAPH $40 admission
ticket deadline has passed even though I'm not certain about going to Seattle
yet. I really, really, really hate flying in planes, or being in any other
thing I'm not at the controls of for that matter. I like amusement rides that
have wheels or levers or something in them to manipulate the things with.
Sorry, I'm going OT here... as I think about the prospect of once again being
in a jet airliner.

Hi Mark Gordon, you recently wrote in povray.general:
> New Orleans, the last week in July. Anybody else going to be there?
I will be there (I managed to place my vacation such that it fits<g>)
and I know of two others that will be there (they haven't posted, so
I'll leave it to them). Make sure you leave a message on the message
boards under the letter P marked "POV users", maybe someone will see
it. Many raytracing enthusiast meet at the Raytracing Roundtable (a
Birds-Of-a-Feather meeting).
