Yeah, probably similar for me...  If I can drive it, I'm usually more apt to go.  If I cannot, I'm much less interested in making a trip.  I'm surprised they're holding it there again honestly.

Jesse, I think I talked with you a little last year about this, but I drove down with two PSWCS members and it worked out really well.  There were a few times on the way back where we were so tired we kind of wanted to just quit, but that had more to do with our own timeline we imposed.  We could have made the trip back easier on ourselves.

If you have a decent size vehicle that gets decent gas mileage, driving from PA down isn't terrible with at least 3 people.  And if you make it a whole vacation, we threw in Disney Saturday during CV and Universal on Monday, it makes for a really fun trip.

I'm psyched to go back to Orlando as much for CVI as I am to get a chance to go to Universal again (I'm a proud Harry Potter fan).  Throw in Disney again for Star Tours 2 and I'm really geeked for this.

I am there.  More details to follow as far as which staffers I can talk into going and geeking out with me.

I figure if my wife was willing to go to CV for our 10th anniversary, this should be an easy sell.  ;)  Besides, we had a lot of fun and Orlando has so much to do, it makes for a great place to visit.

BOOO!! BOOOO!!!

What a stupid place and time to have a convention. Peak toriest session and hotter than Hell.

Why can't they have it in Anaheim, CA? It's no where near as hot. We have DISNEYLAND with far better version of Star Tours! We have the Indiana Jones Adventure! We have a brand new DCA with Carsland open by then. Why do they ignore Disneyland???

Stupid LucasFilm! Who in their right mind would want to go to Florida at that time of year anyway??? 

****'em LAME! >:(  >:(  >:(  >:(

I've always wanted to go to one of these but school/cash have prevented it from ever happening. Might actually get to go to this one. I'll see if I can get Former JediDefender Poster Famine to tag along.

Since I missed the one last year I'm planning on going to this one.  Just have to figure out a few small details that may come up in that time frame.

They need to hold this at the Target Center in Minneapolis.  Who the hell wants to go to Orlando?

This needs to be in San Diego. It's always perfect weather and lots to do.

Can't say I agree on it being in SD...  They get SDCC yearly, so I do like it being given to an EC area that doesn't get much.  I think it should be more central though, in general.  Chicago would be my ideal pick for that, but that's just me.
