Peter,

>I'm strongly considering going to the Great Lakes Great Database Workshow in early November. I'd like to keep my costs down. Is there anyone from Virginia (or possibly NC-SC) who would like to drive out there together and share a hotel room?>

I noticed you're just around the corner from us...I'll be speaking at this conference in November but I'll be flying, not driving so I won't be of help in your original post...but you should stop by at the conference and say hello...we'll also have a vendor booth at the trade show where we'll be spending most of our time!

Regards,
