With PAX East Coast happening, will there also be a PAX here in Seattle?

I would hope so! *laugh*

    Ooh, February would be neat! We could all play in the Snow! (you can't hear it right now, but I'm "eek"ing with pure, unadulterated joy!) Bring your winter coats! =)

    I can't picture anything better than having a 50,000 person snow fortress snowball fight in the fields of Boston Common. =)

    Hmmm, wiki says I'm wrong. Oh man, depending on your definition of late March (i.e., if it's the second to last weekend rather than the last), I could have a PAX birthday! I think it's more likely to be the 26th - 28th though.

    If it's Feb, any chance for a reverse CCST just went right out the window

    =( Don't worry Moe, they'll make sure the roads are paved and salted well, it should be okay I think.

    Well... okay, the mountains might be a bit rough...

    Okay, I see what you mean. =(

    You do realize this is Massachusetts we're talking about, right VT? You lived in NH, you know how it is.

    Nothing really. It's a bit more humid in New England that time of year, but in truth it's not horrible. It's not like, say, the deep South in terms of humidity. At least as far as I can remember, it has been many years since I've lived there.

    Maybe someone currently in Boston can give a more accurate assessment of the humidity level in June, and whether it's actually annoying or not?

    And SlickShughes, I was trying to keep it positive! =) lol =) I want a PAX snowball fight! ;)

    I have worries about the east coast pax. I worry I can't afford both. However, I don't think that will be too much of a problem since there was way too many this year and there will be next year.

    for boston PAX? I'd imagine that having the cons 2-3 months apart with all the planning it entails would be cutting things a bit too close for comfort

    having them almost 6 months apart gives them much more breathing room and I'd imagine it also helps them build more interest in each even separately

    just my thoughts

    I hope nobody tries to drive to this thing, because driving and parking in Boston is horrible. Fortunately Amtrack is really competent in this area.

    You can drive, but like if you had the opportunity to fuck Lindsay Lohan, I'd first try to use someone else's.

    I'm saying a pair of things: don't use your own car to drive to Boston, and making a joke on the line "I wouldn't fuck her with YOUR dick" as applied to Lindsay Lohan.

    You act like hotels don't have parking. If I paid $33 a night to park my car in Seattle, I'll do the same (or similar) in Boston. It's not like I plan on driving around town for a weekend. After 2 days of driving, the last thing I want to do is sit in a car.

    Man, you are taking this pretty seriously. All I am saying is that parking and driving in Boston is fairly difficult for those that don't know.

    I kinda wish they had chosen a location for East Coast PAX that wasn't also wedged up near a corner of the U.S. Somewhere a little more central along the East Coast, like a Virginia location, would really have been more convenient for more people, at least as far as making travel arrangements.

    Still, I'll be there for sure.

    Philly might have been a good choice, along with the requisite PA in PA jokes.

    Of course, who the fuck would want to visit Pennsylvania? The state is despair in geographic form.

    Khoo has made it clear they want to expand. They will do it semi-annually instead of annually. I figure they have enough pull to do it semi-annually.
