Title: The 2004 OUCH convention
Post by ave on Jul 7^th, 2003, 3:32am

People considering volunteering to organize the 2004 convention should realize that they are duty bound to pick a location that starts with

V

Just check this out

2000 - Vegas
2001 - Atlanta
2002 - Vancouver
2003 - Alexandria Bay

Anyone got any ideas?

How about our brand new KnoxVille Convention Center ? (http://www.knoxvilletennessee.com/convention-ctr.html)

Tennessee is centrally located within a 500-mile radius of 75% of the U.S. population and is served by 7 interstate highways, 3 major railroad lines and 5 regional airports, two of which offer nonstop flights between Tennessee and Los Angeles or New York.

500 miles = 1 days drive!

Lots (http://www.inns-n-out-hotels.com/TN/Knoxville/hyatt-regency-knoxville.htm) of Hotels and Motels...cheap!

AND...I am here! ;D I have experience with conventions also and would be willing to work my butt to the bone for such an event...I only wish I could go this year. 2 out of the last 3 have been within 1/2 days drive of here...sheesh! :-/

Yall come on down and let us show you some good ole Southern Hospitality! Even you folks who talk funny..from the north of the Mason Dixon Line. (http://www.glo.gis.iastate.edu/images/m-d-line.gif)

I say we put it to a vote, with only those who agree with me being allowed to vote.

Very simple when put to math.

Taking total digits and their representative alpha numberic value of Alexandria Bay NY leaves you with 368.

Assumption -- Next local starts with a V, followed by a subsequent A on the next cyclic year.

Therefore, Taking the total digits of Overland Park, KS and their representive alpha numeric value gives you 230.

Subtracting 230 from 368 then subtracting the value of A + V X 5 (5th convention) leaves you with 1/2 the value of A + V, or 13, and 1/2 of 13 is 6.5, with OP KS on the West side of KS, in relation to Vegas (Site #1) it equates to 6, and 6 is the total number of digits in Kansas. Whereas as OP KS is 1/2 way between Vegas (Site #1) and Alexandria Bay (Site #4) and with both sites added together making (5), and 5 being the next convention, it is very simple that this works out to be a matimatically sound decision.

What say you?

I need a beer
