I know Dain said the last one took a lot out of him. I know its early but as it stands are there plans to try and hold a expo this year.

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

Im sure it is more work than most of us realize in order to make the expo a success. I sure hope there is another one this year though.

I want to help too, I would love to host it down here in Florida, we have plenty of great expo centers and halls. I have no idea where I would even start, let alone what to do, plus there's nobody even remotely near me, except FamicomFreak, but he's about 2 hours away.

That's precisely why we probably wouldn't pick Florida to host it. We try to host them in a centralized area of sorts to where people have to travel equal distance or so.

Plus I just left Florida and I don't wanna come back.

I would be interested in the expo as well. I'm in a pretty centralized area (St. Louis). Pretty much middle of the US. Don't know if anyone else is around here though.

if there isn't an expo this year... the NA crew should fly to portland oregon for the Retro Gaming Expo on Sept 20th, hosted by NWCGE. I'd love to meet some of you guys. I'd also be willing to put anyone up in my house 2 hrs south in Eugene.

Well, Qix, if I can find a job and start making some real money, maybe I'll convince the wife that I want to go there for my birthday. She wants to see the West coast anyway.

Anywhere's good for me because I'm going to be flying to it anyways.

Florida (I know its not going to happen, I'm just mentioning it because it was mentioned) would be sick because then I could see my mom.

I'm pretty sure they broke even, but the work involved just scared Dain away. It doesn't look like one will happen this year unless someone else steps up, and with all that is involved, I really don't see it happening this year
