<snip> My personal choice for a city would be Minneapolis, because

there could be a close drive for a day trip ... arranged to visit Mayo

Clinic in Rochester for those that wanted to. It might be possible to

get a neurologist from there to speak.

For that same reason, the major cities close to the Mayo Clinic in

Arizona and Florida might come back into the picture, even if they

aren't airline " hub " cities. <snip>

That's a great idea! Choose a destination near one of the Mayo

Clinics... If Rochester was chosen maybe we could get the infamous Dr.

Boeve! I saw him IRL - are you jelous?

And if FL was chosen - then maybe we could get Tanis Ferman, MD...

If I were in charge <grins> I'd Pick a 3 person committee to make this

solid and just choose a site.

Nothing personal, but I'd assign 3 people from East to West: Say

from Mass, Sandie from Des Moines, and Janet Colello from California ,.

Then I'd recommend that they choose a city that serves as an airline 'hub'

like Denver, Dallas, Minneapolis, Chicago, Atlanta, etc. The committee

could choose its own chairperson.

There are a bunch more people that would also deserve to be on the

committee, but then it gets to large to function.

There are abunch of wonderful cities. I love Toronto, and Vancouver, but

my favorite one in Canada is Calgary.
