Besides, if this is true, why is there no serious event in the US? I've said it before and I'll say it again: if the event would be in the US instead of Austria, I'd still go in a hartbeat. And so would Brutus, Fritz, Shredder, Diep, Junior and if I'd have to guesw, probably ParSOS and Falcon too. We want to _play_. We don't care _where_ it is! Is that so hard to understand? -- GCP
