Re: COMMON Update... - the closing event

[Don <dr2@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

this is one of the big reasons why, if COMMON wants to keep any kind of 
Thursday attendance, they kinda need to keep the conferences east of the 
MS, with the exception of say San Antonio...  You can get 5-7pm flights 
outta SAT and still hit east coast airports without having to catch a red 
eye...
