OK, a little humor. I escaped D.C. on Sunday morning just before
the next big storm hit and closed National again... got home to
Saint Paul, Minnesota to almost no snow..... a little cold, yes
but... almost no snow!

After the 1984 and the 1987 experience I suggest that the East
Coast year of the Uniforum/Usenix shibang be moved to a point
farther SOUTH ( Atlanta, Miami, whereever just NOT D.C. ). D.C.
would be a LOT more likeable during a warmer month. I like
January meetings, just not that far into the snow belt.
