    Why? On my computer screen, you're only 87mm away...

    I might just bop over for that, depending on snow. It's really not that far from central Illinois.

    :P Ive been there twice.

    In all seriousness, I normally only go to two hamfests a year. Breezshooters (Have only missed it once in 10 years, last year) and Cuyahoga Falls. Last year however I did not make it to any hamfests.

    Yeah, but you have to go through Ohio, land of America's Worst State Police, to get from IL to western PA.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
