    Being at a mid-sized, I got quite a bit out of the nationals I've attended. That's why I paid my own way once the company cut it out of the budget.

    But this year, the personal budget wouldn't allow it either.

    I'm hoping to make it to next year's in Pittsburgh.

    Don't they actually put together a CD or DVD of the best ideas from the convention anyway? If so, and if it's easily accessible, then it seems pointless to even attend.

    Yes, there's a disc of the best ideas. But as far as I know, there's no way to get it unless you attend. (Or have somebody who attends lift a spare copy for you.)

    nice. still wish i were going to the convention to hear what others have to say, but it's just not in my budget this year.

    I gave up going this year as part of another wonderful department budget cut. Unless it's in Vegas again (or some place way more exotic than Minneapolis), there's no chance I'm paying my own way.

    the fact that it's in Minneapolis was definitely an issue for me, too.
    if i am paying my own way, it's gonna have to be someplace more exciting.

    I am looking forward to the contest judging in Vegas. But that thing is so much damn work, probably won't get much time to enjoy the town.
