Chicago? I could probably make it with enough advance notice. At least for a weekend.

I probably can't host anyone... (I've got a wife and kid in an already super-cramped house...) BUT, weather-dependent, (especially if you get one of those cool metra (train) weekend passes that gives you pretty much unlimited rides, I could host a party in my backyard, as I live in the suburbs, and am half a block away from the metra station. SOOOOoooo... Yeah, that would be cool. It's not Chicago, and it's not anything special, but it could be something else to do...

EDIT: Oh, and I'll bring a "hear, hear" on Krystyn's call of Na ¹⁰ cho ¹⁵ s.

I'd also like (and I'm one of the Chicago Organizers, I suppose) the idea of having talking types who get paid to do things say things at me in a conference setting.

So, I'm kinda for that, although it is understood that ARGFOC06 doesn't require these sorts of things.

Hi guys,

In a semi-official speaking-as-an-employee-of-Mind Candy position, I'm fairly certain that at least one of us will be at Argfest 06 (if only because I'm annoyed I couldn't go last time).

Although Dorkmaster already tried twice, I still heard noone confirm that Chicago is indeed the city of choice yet, but because of where this thread (that I only just noticed!) is going, it might be a good idea to formally decide on Chicago for ARGfest '06?

Once there's agreement on the above, he next step would be to try and set a date, so planning can commence. Maybe it would be best to get a small comittee together to decide on some stuff and perhaps decide on a few options? I'd like to offer my services to help plan ARGfest '06, although, because I'm not as near as some other folks (ahem Wink

), it'll mostly be helping out with some planning and perhaps maintaining a website and stuff?

I will do my utmost best to attend ARGfest this time (although some people might be doubting my credibility by now, but I promise, if no new jobs or home buying/selling situations arise, I will try to be there!)

Which, incidently, also means that I won't be doing a simultaneous attempt at organising ARGFest Amsterdam, but you are all still invited to the little MiniFest get-together that I'm hosting in and around Amsterdam somewhere in April/May Smile

Well if it is indeed in Chicago, I will call on us poor Southeasterners for a massive migration/road trip. Unless, air fare is really, really low that weekend.

Oh, we shall see. We shall see.

SF is amazing, and I'm A+ 100% mega behind that. But I've got family in Chicago and my parents would probably pay for the ticket, soooo...
