>I'm not saying we should return to Toledo, but maybe someplace like Charlotte, St. Louis, one of a dozen cities in Texas, or my hometown of Indianapolis would be easier to sell to the training department that this is a BUSINESS trip.

I've always wondered why the DevCons seem to be on either coast (San Diego/Orlando). Even Phoenix isn't all that centrally located. Seems like something like Dallas would be accessible to more people geographically. Of course, I'm biased - I live in Oklahoma City. :)
