@Andy Hummell posted:the way I look at this whole matter is that this is the EDTCA's party in the EDTCA's house, and as I am not in the Eastern Division, I am only a guest at that party, so I have no right to even suggest that they make changes to their event, especially since only they have all the facts regarding the financials and logistics involved in making this meet happen (that might make for a good article for a magazine dedicated to O gauge model trains...). It is the responsibility of the individual to fit themselves into the organization and its events, not the other way around (sort of like the point JFK was trying to make in his "Ask not..." speech).

I agree with this statement but I see no harm in offering suggestions as long as the person offering then understands that it is ultimately up to the EDTCA membership. I've offered a few suggestions but have no expectation that mine are ground breaking or even plausible. Your statement, <<only they have all the facts regarding the financials and logistics involved in making this meet happen >> is spot on. Anyone offering suggestions should keep that in mind. expectations.
