I see (from the banner) Intercosmos is hosting Domainer Mardi Gras the weekend before Mardi Gras (Feb 19-21) in New Orleans. I absolutely LOVE the idea of having a domainer meeting by the French Quarter as there hasn't been a show there since Internext in 2000.
But...is this really the ideal weekend for it? I mean, if you don't have your hotel reservations 3-4 months in advance, and at $209 per night already, it would seem many might not be able to get a room if they wait until even December. It has been my experience that many folks come the Friday or Saturday before Mardi Gras and Fat Tuesday is the end for them rather than the beginning.
Here in Louisiana, the schools are usually closed. And the state super is talking about cancelling the usual Monday/Tuesday off to make up for the week lost to Gustav and Ike.
Perhaps next Labor Day weekend -- when Decadence is in town. :smilewinkgrin:
