We might consider trying to have the anniversary gathering as close to as
many FMLers as possible.  For example, it seems that there might be a
clustering of FMLers in the DC metro area, and maybe in the New England area
too.  If the gathering was held somewhere in one of those areas, or
somewhere between those areas, it would be closer to more FMLers.  If it was
held in Florida, a majority of the folks would probably have to fly in which
certainly can be expensive and troublesome if ferrets are brought.  If we
could determine a geographical region where a majority of FMLers are
clustered, that would mean more people would be able to drive, and therefore
more people might be able to attend.  BIG, do you have any stats on
geographical area of FMLers?
 
I don't really know what there is in New England, but there's always
Williamsburg VA.  Also, there's an amusement park near Philadelphia (I
think) called Six Flags. That's sort of in the middle of the two areas.
 
Isn't NYCity a ferret unfriendly city?  If so, I would prefer not to
contribute to their ecomony by gathering 2,000 FMLers there.  Just my
opinion.
 
OH, by the way, I posted this quote yesterday, but I forgot to explain that
Pinkie and the Brain are LAB MICE.  It might make more sense if you know
that.  Sorry.
 
>Brain:   "Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
>Pinky:  "Wuh, I think so, Brain, but if we didn't have
